Georgia Court of Appeals

Sandra Kay Hunter et al.. v. Lowndes County Health Services

A20A0322 June 4, 2020 Reversed

Automated case summary

What the court decided

The legal issue is whether an unsigned arbitration agreement, lacking consideration and party assent, constitutes a valid contract. The Georgia Court of Appeals reversed the trial court's decision, holding that the arbitration agreement was unenforceable because Lowndes County Health Services failed to sign it and Hunter had revoked her assent to arbitrate.
