Syllabus

A district court order and judgment are reversed, and the case is remanded for entry of an order compelling arbitration. In construing arbitration clauses, courts have categorized arbitration clauses as either broad or narrow. A broad arbitration provision covers all disputes arising out of a contract to arbitrate a narrow provision limits arbitration to specific types of disputes. If the arbitration clause is broad in scope, the court will defer to arbitration on any issues that touch on contract rights or contract performance.
