How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• emphasizing that courts should hesitate “to read unwritten terms into agreements containing [integration clauses]”
• noting that the breadth of the agreement is secondary to proving the existence of the agreement and identifying the protagonists
• signing an arbitration agreement as agent for a disclosed principal is not sufficient to bind the agent to arbitrate claims against him personally
• applying de novo review to district court's ruling on scope of arbitration agreement
• finding the defendant-employee not covered by the arbitration agreement in part because “we are unable to discern any indication in the [contract] that the parties meant to make their respective agents or employees third-party beneficiaries”
• analyzing text of agreement as \best indicator of the parties' intent\
