Dispute Resolution / Agreement to Arbitrate
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY—IT MAY SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT AND TO HAVE A JURY HEAR YOUR CLAIMS. IT CONTAINS PROCEDURES FOR FINAL BINDING ARBITRATION AND A WAIVER OF ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO PROCEED IN A CLASS, COLLECTIVE, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION (hereinafter "Class Action").
Most customer concerns can be resolved by e-mailing Customer Service at maassembly@protonmail.com. In the event Customer Service is unable to resolve a complaint to your satisfaction, this section explains how any Claims (as defined below) are resolved through arbitration.
In this Agreement to Arbitrate, the term "MDJA" includes Massachusetts de jure Assembly and any of its affiliates or subsidiaries (regardless of tier and including but not limited to maassembly.info,) and any persons or entities (including agents or employees) related to maassembly.info or its affiliates or subsidiaries.
THIS SECTION PROVIDES THAT CLAIMS (AS DEFINED BELOW) BETWEEN YOU AND MONTANA DE JURE ASSEMBLY MUST BE RESOLVED BY BINDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION UNDER COMMON LAW AND NATURAL LAW. ARBITRATION REPLACES THE RIGHT TO GO TO COURT, HAVE A JURY TRIAL, OR FILE OR PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION. IN ARBITRATION, DISPUTES ARE RESOLVED BY AN ARBITRATOR, NOT A JUDGE OR JURY. ARBITRATION PROCEDURES ARE SIMPLER AND MORE LIMITED THAN IN COURT. THIS AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE IS GOVERNED BY COMMON LAW AND NATURAL LAW AND SHALL BE INTERPRETED IN THE BROADEST WAY THE LAW WILL ALLOW.
You and MDJA agree that any claim, dispute, or controversy arising out of or relating to your use of
this website or any product(s) or service(s) sold or other benefit offered to you by/through MDJA (except claims, disputes, or controversies concerning either (i) the validity, enforceability, or scope of any part of this Agreement to Arbitrate or (ii) intellectual property rights) shall be subject to binding individual arbitration (hereinafter "Claim" or "Claims"). IN ARBITRATION, NEITHER YOU NOR MDJA WILL HAVE THE RIGHT TO LITIGATE ANY CLAIM IN COURT OR HAVE
A JURY TRIAL ON ANY CLAIM. BOTH PARTIES HEREBY AGREE TO PROCEED IN ARBITRATION AND WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OR OTHER TRIAL IN COURT.
You and MDJA agree that any and all Claims against each other may be brought only on an individual basis in arbitration. You and MDJA agree to forgo/waive any right or ability to file, or participate in, any Class Action against the other party and instead agree to arbitrate all Claims against the other party on an individual basis only. You and MDJA agree that Claims of two (2) or more persons may not be combined or consolidated in the same arbitration. You and MDJA agree that the arbitrator has no authority or power to arbitrate or otherwise decide any Claim on a class, collective, or other representative basis, and may award relief only on an individual basis. The arbitrator also has no power or authority to rule on his/her own jurisdiction or to determine the validity, enforceability, or scope of any part of this Agreement to Arbitrate.
All Claims are subject to arbitration, no matter what legal theory the Claims are based on and no matter what remedy (including any type of monetary relief (including but not limited to damages and penalties) and including any type of injunctive, declaratory, or other equitable relief) the Claims seek, including but not limited to: Claims based on contract, tort (including but not limited to intentional torts), fraud, agency, negligence, equity, qui tam, deceptive trade practices, any statutory or regulatory provisions (federal, state, or otherwise), or any other sources of law (federal, state, or otherwise); Claims made as initial claims, counterclaims, cross-claims, third-party claims, interpleaders, or otherwise; and Claims made regarding past, present, or future conduct. You agree not to sell, assign, or transfer any Claim.
Arbitration shall be administered by the Courts and Enforcement arm of the Massachusetts de jure Assembly, a self-governing congregation and the source of legal, political and spiritual authority for the sovereign state of Massachusetts.
Arbitration shall be initiated in accordance with the Rules of Common Law and Natural Law, except that the parties agree that any demand for arbitration or other similar document will be signed by the filing party personally (for MDJA, by an authorized non-lawyer representative) and not by an attorney. The arbitration shall be conducted by a single arbitrator in accordance with this Agreement to Arbitrate and the Rules of Common Law and Natural Law. Both you and MDJA shall participate equally in the selection of the arbitrator. The parties shall request MDJA Courts and Enforcement to provide a panel of three (3) neutral arbitrators along with materials showing the background of each arbitrator on the panel provided. Within seven (7) calendar days after the panel is received, the parties shall take turns striking unacceptable arbitrators from the panel until only one remains. The parties then shall inform MDJA of the remaining arbitrator who will decide the dispute. If both parties agree that the remaining arbitrator is unacceptable, the parties may request a second panel from MDJA and the selection process will begin again. If both parties agree that no one on the second panel is acceptable, either party may request MDJA to appoint an arbitrator who was not on either panel.
You and MDJA agree to limit discovery in arbitration. Each party agrees to limit their respective discovery in arbitration to: (i) depositions of up to three (3) relevant individuals; (ii) service of one
set of up to twenty (20) interrogatories (including subparts); and (iii) service of one set of up to
twenty (20) requests for production of relevant documents. The party taking the deposition shall be responsible for all associated costs, including the cost of a court reporter, transcript, videographer, or video. Responses to interrogatories or document requests must be served within thirty (30) calendar days of receipt of the interrogatories or document requests. The arbitrator also may allow additional relevant and reasonable discovery consistent with this Agreement to Arbitrate.
The arbitrator must honor claims of privilege recognized at law and shall take reasonable steps to protect account information and other confidential information of either party if requested to do so. The arbitrator must allow, and has the authority to grant, motions dispositive of all or part of any Claim. The arbitrator shall apply the substantive law, including the conflicts of law, of the state in which your billing address is/was located at the time you and MDJA entered into this Agreement to Arbitrate.
The arbitrator shall have the authority to award individual monetary and non-monetary relief available under applicable law. The arbitrator shall issue a written award and statement of decision explaining the findings and conclusions on which the award is based, including the calculation of any damages awarded. An arbitration award shall decide the rights and obligations only of the parties named in the arbitration and shall not have any bearing on any other person or dispute. No decision
by an arbitrator shall serve as precedent in any other matter. Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any Common Law and Natural Law court of competent jurisdiction. The arbitrator's award is final and binding and is subject to judicial review only as allowed by Common Law and Natural Law.
You are responsible for paying the consumer filing fee required by MDJA Courts and Enforcement. MDJA will pay the other costs for the parties to access the arbitral forum that are required by MDJA Courts and Enforcement. The parties are otherwise responsible for their own attorney's fees, expert fees, and any other costs and expenses incurred, unless applicable law allows the arbitrator to award such fees, costs, or expenses to you for prevailing on a Claim.
MDJA may modify this Agreement to Arbitrate upon posting a revised version in its Terms and Conditions Legal Notice. Any such modification shall be effective for any Claim based on use of the website or any product or service sold or other benefit offered to you by/through MDJA after the date of such posting. The modification will only apply prospectively and will not apply to any Claims that have arisen or accrued before the modification is posted. Your continued use of this website, donations, comments, inquiries, purchase of a product or services, or acceptance of other benefits after the date of posting will constitute your acceptance of, and agreement to, any such modification. In the absence of such advance written notice, if the Claims arose or accrued before the effective date of the modification, or if the modification is not allowed by a court in the applicable jurisdiction, the Agreement to Arbitrate that was in effect before the modification shall govern the parties' dispute.
This Agreement to Arbitrate shall survive any termination of the relationship between you and MDJA, including the bankruptcy of any party or any transfer in or change of control of MDJA. If any terms or parts of this Agreement to Arbitrate are deemed invalid or unenforceable under applicable law, the other terms/parts of this Agreement to Arbitrate shall remain in full force and effect, except that you and MDJA agree that there will never be any arbitration of any Claims on a class, consolidated, collective, or representative basis.
