摘要:Plaintiffs/Appellants Hirsch Holdings,
L.L.C., et al. (individually, by name, or collectively,
Hirsch or Plaintiffs), seek review of the
trial court¡¯s orders denying their motion to
vacate an arbitrator¡¯s award for Defendants/
Appellees Hannagan-Tobey, L.L.C., et al. (individually,
by name, or collectively, Hannagan or
Defendants), and granting Defendants¡¯ motion
to confirm the arbitrator¡¯s decision, including
the arbitrator¡¯s award of attorney¡¯s fees. In this
proceeding, Plaintiffs challenge the trial court¡¯s
orders compelling arbitration and confirming
the arbitrator¡¯s award as (1) contrary to the
parties¡¯ contractual agreement to litigate all
disputes, (2) improperly requiring arbitration
of non-arbitrable tort claims, and (3) violating
both the contractual terms and Oklahoma law
governing recovery of attorney¡¯s fees. Having
reviewed the record, we hold the trial court
erred in compelling arbitration. The orders of
the trial court are consequently reversed, and
the cause remanded for further proceedings.
