DEFENDANT’S MOTION FOR STAY OF LITIGATION
COMES NOW, Indy Auto Man, LLC, Defendant in the above-styled cause, and applies to
this Court for an order pursuant to the Federal Arbitration Act to stay these judicial proceedings
pending arbitration of all arbitrable issues in controversy between the parties, and in support of
this motion, respectfully shows as follows:
1 On or about December 14, 2019, EZ360, LLC (“Plaintiff”) and Indy Auto Man,
LLC (“Defendant”) entered into a written agreement for Plaintiff to construct a photo studio for
Defendant in the state of Indiana (the “Agreement”). Plaintiff is a Texas Limited Liability
Company, and Defendant is an Indiana Limited Liability Company.
2. In paragraph 8.3 of the Agreement, the parties agreed as follows:
In the event of any dispute, claim, question or disagreement arising from or relating
to this Agreement or the alleged breach thereof, the parties shall use their best
efforts to mutually settle such dispute, claim, question or disagreement. To this
effect, they shall consult and negotiate with each other in good faith, and,
recognizing their mutual interests, attempt to reach a just and equitable resolution
satisfactory to both parties. If they do not reach such a resolution within a period of
60 days, then, upon notice by either party to the other, all such disputes, claims,
questions or disagreements shall be finally settled by binding arbitration. Such
arbitration shall be administered in accordance with the commercial arbitration
tules of the American Arbitration Association with the arbitration being located
exclusively in Dallas, Texas.

3 A copy of the Agreement is attached as Exhibit A and incorporated herein by
reference. The Arbitration Clause is valid and enforceable, and supported by adequate
consideration.
4 A dispute has arisen between Plaintiff and Defendant as to the respective parties’
obligations under the Agreement. Plaintiff alleges, among other things, that Defendant breached
the Agreement, violated the Texas Uniform Trade Secrets Act by breaking Defendant’s agreement
to maintain the secrecy of Plaintiff's trade secrets under the Agreement, and tortuously interfered
with EZ360s contract with its subcontractor who was performing work under the Agreement.
Defendant denies each and every of Plaintiff's allegations, and asserts that Plaintiff breached the
Agreement, among other acts and omissions. Each and every of Plaintiffs and Defendant’s
disputes arise under the Agreement.
5 On or about March 4, 2021, Plaintiff filed Plaintiff's Original Petition against
Defendant in the above-captioned action, asserting claims for breach of contract, violations of
TUTSA, and tortious interference with contract. All of these claims arise from or relate to the
Agreement, and are therefore subject to Paragraph 8.3’s arbitration clause.
6 On March 24, 2021 and again on March 29, 2021, Defendant attempted to initiate
arbitration of the above-described controversy in accordance with the terms of the Agreement by
making a written demand for arbitration to Plaintiff, true and correct copies are attached as Exhibit
B, and fully incorporated by reference. Plaintiff did not respond to these requests.
7 Defendant requests that notice of hearing on this Motion be sent to Plaintiff, and
that, on hearing, the Court order as follows:
A This litigation be stayed in its entirety;
B If the parties do not commence arbitration in Dallas County, Texas on or
before May 31, 2021, the Court will dismiss Plaintiffs claims with
prejudice to refile;
