EASTINCO LTD v. Daniel Lee HOGAN
By choosing to litigate in court and not raising the arbitration clause as a jurisdictional objection, both parties tacitly amended their contract and waived the right to arbitration. Therefore, the lower courts had jurisdiction, and the Court of Appeal lacks jurisdiction to entertain the second appeal.
