Common use of The Arbitrator Clause in Contracts

The Arbitrator. All disputes will be resolved by a single Arbitrator selected from a list provided by the AAA pursuant to the AAA Rules. The Arbitrator has the authority to determine the arbitrability of the dispute itself and to rule on any motions regarding discovery or the pleadings, including motions to dismiss and for summary judgment, and, in doing so, shall apply the standards set forth in the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure (except as otherwise set forth in this Arbitration Agreement), and to order any and all equitable or legal relief which a party could obtain from a court of competent jurisdiction on the basis of the claims made in the dispute. The arbitrator shall have no power to vary or ignore the terms of this Arbitration and shall be bound by controlling law and the Federal Rules of Evidence.
