19. Disputes.
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT INCLUDES A MANDATORY ARBITRATION PROVISION, WHICH MEANS THAT YOU AGREE TO
SUBMIT ANY DISPUTE RELATED TO YOUR USE OF ANY OF THE SITES TO BINDING
INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION RATHER THAN PROCEED IN COURT. THIS PROVISION ALSO
INCLUDES A CLASS ACTION WAIVER, WHICH MEANS THAT YOU AGREE TO
PROCEED WITH ANY DISPUTE INDIVIDUALLY AND NOT AS PART OF A CLASS ACTION.
THIS SECTION ALSO INCLUDES A JURY WAIVER.
You and Julien’s Auctions agree that any dispute, controversy, or claim
that has arisen or may arise between us relating in any way to your use of
or access to the Auction, the Service, any interpretation, breach,
enforcement, or termination of these Auction Terms and Conditions, or
otherwise relating to Julien’s Auctions in any way (collectively, “Covered
Matters”) will be resolved in accordance with the provisions set forth in
this Section 10.
a. Informal Resolution. If you have any dispute with us,
you agree that before taking any formal action, you will contact us at info@juliensauctions.com,
provide a brief, written description of the dispute and your contact
information (including your username, if your dispute relates to an
account) and allow sixty (60) days to pass, during which we will attempt to
reach an amicable resolution of your issue.
b. Applicable Law. The laws of the State of California,
and applicable federal law, will govern all Covered Matters. California
conflicts of law rules shall apply.
c. Arbitration.
Subject only to the optional exceptions in Paragraph 19(e) below, You
and Julien’s Auctions each agree that any and all disputes, claims, or
controversies that have arisen, or may arise, between you and Julien’s
Auctions relating in any way to or arising out of this or previous
versions of the Terms of Use or the breach, termination, enforcement,
interpretation or validity thereof, your use of or access to our
services, or any products or services sold, offered, or purchased
through Company's services shall be resolved exclusively through final
and binding arbitration, rather than in court.
Any claims arising out of, relating to, or connected with these Terms of
Use not resolved through Informal Resolution pursuant to paragraph 19(a)
above must be asserted individually in a binding arbitration to be
administered by Signature Resolution, LLC (“Signature”) in Los Angeles
County, California pursuant to the Signature Arbitration Rules and
Procedures. Both parties further agree that the arbitration shall be
conducted before a single Signature arbitrator who is a retired California
or federal judge or justice. The arbitrator shall strictly apply California
substantive law and the California Rules of Evidence. BY AGREEING TO
ARBITRATE, YOU WAIVE ANY RIGHT YOU HAVE TO A COURT OR JURY TRIAL. The
arbitrator shall not conduct any form of class or collective arbitration
nor join or consolidate claims by or for individuals. The arbitrator, and
not any federal, state, or local court or agency, shall have exclusive
authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation,
applicability, enforceability or formation of these Terms of Use,
including, any claim that all or any part of these Terms of Use is void or
voidable or that a particular claim is subject to arbitration. Judgment on
the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of
competent jurisdiction.
d. Award. You agree and acknowledge that in any award to
be granted by the Arbitrator, your rights and remedies against us or any
distributor of financier or other party related to the Auction or Service
shall be limited to an action at law for money damages, and you hereby
waive all other rights and remedies you may have at law or in equity
(including, without limitation, injunctive relief, rescission,
cancellation, and termination of this Agreement or the right to enjoin or
restrain the advertisement, promotion, marketing or exploitation by
Julien’s Auctions or any third party in connection with the Auction and/or
any rights or activities hereunder in any and all manner of media
whatsoever, whether now known or hereafter devised). For matters where the
relief sought is over $5,000, the arbitrator’s decision will include the
essential findings and conclusions upon which the arbitrator based the
award. The arbitrator will decide the substance of all claims in accordance
with applicable law, including recognized principles of equity, and will
honor all claims of privilege recognized by law. The arbitrator’s award of
damages must be consistent with the terms of the “Limitation of Liability”
section as to the types and the amounts of damages for which a party may be
held liable. The arbitrator shall not be bound by rulings in prior
arbitrations involving different users, but is bound by rulings in prior
arbitrations involving the same Julien’s Auctions user to the extent
required by applicable law. The arbitrator’s award shall be final and
binding and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered
in any court having jurisdiction thereof. THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD RELIEF
(INCLUDING MONETARY, INJUNCTIVE, AND DECLARATORY RELIEF) ONLY IN FAVOR OF
THE INDIVIDUAL PARTY SEEKING RELIEF AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO
PROVIDE RELIEF NECESSITATED BY THAT PARTY’S INDIVIDUAL CLAIM(S). ANY RELIEF
AWARDED CANNOT AFFECT OTHER USERS.
e. Exceptions. There are only two exceptions in which the
parties may elect to seek resolution outside of Arbitration before
Signature:
(i) First, if we reasonably believe that you have in any manner infringed
upon or violated or threatened to violate or infringe any of our
Intellectual Property Rights, privacy rights, publicity rights, or data
security, in which case you acknowledge that there may be no adequate
remedy at law and we may seek injunctive or other appropriate relief in any
court of competent jurisdiction, without any attempt at informal resolution
pursuant to paragraph 10(a) above.
(ii) Second, any claim of $500 or less may, at the option of the claiming
party, be resolved in small claims court in Los Angeles County, California,
if the claim and the parties are within the jurisdiction of the small
claims court and so long as the matter remains in such court and advances
only on an individual (non-class, non-representative) basis.
f. Costs of Arbitration. Payment of all filing,
administration, and arbitrator fees will be governed by Signature Rules,
unless otherwise stated in this agreement to arbitrate. If the value of the
relief sought is $5,000 or less, at your request, Julien’s Auctions will
reimburse you for all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees
associated with the arbitration following the earlier of the arbitrator’s
decision or settlement. In the event the arbitrator determines the claim(s)
you assert in the arbitration to be frivolous, Julien’s Auctions is
relieved of its obligation to reimburse you for any fees associated with
the arbitration. The prevailing party shall be entitled to an award of all
attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses incurred by it in connection with the
dispute. “Attorneys’ fees and expenses” includes, without limitation,
paralegals’ fees and expenses, attorneys’ consultants’ fees and expenses,
expert witness’ fees and expenses, and all other expenses incurred by the
prevailing party or its attorneys in the course of their representation of
the prevailing party in anticipation of and/or during the course of the
litigation, whether or not otherwise recoverable as “attorneys’ fees” or as
“costs” under California law; and the same may be sought and awarded in
accordance with California procedure as pertaining to an award of
contractual attorneys’ fees.
g. Future Amendments to the Agreement to Arbitrate.
Notwithstanding any provision in the Terms of Use to the contrary, you and
we agree that if we make any amendment to this agreement to arbitrate in
the future, that amendment shall not apply to any claim that was filed in a
legal proceeding against Julien’s Auctions prior to the effective date of
the amendment. The amendment shall apply to all other disputes or claims
governed by the agreement to arbitrate that have arisen or may arise
between you and Julien’s Auctions. If you do not agree to these amended
terms, you may close your account within thirty (30) days of the posting or
notification and you will not be bound by the amended terms.
h. Judicial Forum for Legal Disputes. Unless you and we
agree otherwise, in the event that the agreement to arbitrate above is
found not to apply to you or to a particular claim or dispute, either as a
result of your decision to opt out of the agreement to arbitrate, as a
result of a decision by the arbitrator or a court order or because of an
election pursuant to Paragraph 10(e) above, you agree that any claim,
controversy, or dispute that has arisen or may arise between you and
Julien’s Auctions must be resolved exclusively by a state, federal, or
small claims court located in Los Angeles County, California. You and
Julien’s Auctions agree to submit to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of
the courts located within Los Angeles County, California for the purpose of
litigating all such claims or disputes.
