p0438 REVIEW DENIED In deciding whether to grant a motion to compel arbitration by party who declared that he would not submit to arbitration in California unless the other party agreed to waive California's ethical standards for arbitrators -- which were being challenged in federal court -- the trial court should first decide whether California is a proper location for the arbitration, and if so should deny the motion, but if the court finds that an out-of-state location is proper, the dispute should be resolved through arbitration there.CitationALAN v SUPERIOR COURT (Ethical Standards) 111 CA4 217 [See: 15 USC 78a etseq; 9 USC 1 etseq; CCP 1281.85(a); R of C appen div VI]
