- Governing Law/Dispute Resolution
17.1 Governing Law. The Service (excluding any linked sites) is controlled by us from our offices within the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, United States of America. It can be accessed from all 50 states, as well as from other countries around the world. As each of these places has laws that may differ from those of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, by accessing the Service both of us agree that the statutes and laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, without regard to the conflict of laws principles thereof and the United Nations Convention on the International Sales of Goods, will apply to all matters relating to the use of the Service and the purchase of products and services available on or through the Service.
17.2 Dispute Resolution Agreement. You and CARTER JOEY agree to resolve any dispute or question arising as to the interpretation of any clause of, or the rights and liabilities of you or us under, or in any manner relating to these Terms of Use and connected in any manner with use of the Service (each, a "Claim") in accordance with one of the subsections below or as CARTER JOEY and you otherwise agree in writing.
17.3 Jurisdiction; Venue. Except as otherwise provided under this Section 18, you and CARTER JOEY agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction and proper venue of the Allegheny Circuit Court and/or the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania, in each case located in Pittsburgh, Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, and knowingly, intelligently, and voluntarily waive any right to trial by jury.
17.4 Arbitration. Any Claim shall be referred to final and binding arbitration before a single arbitrator in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, under the rules and procedures of the American Arbitration Association relating to the selection of arbitrators for the determination of issues. The arbitration shall be governed by the United States Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16. This agreement to arbitrate is supported by adequate consideration, receipt of which is acknowledged. The decision of the arbitrator will be binding, final, and conclusive on you and us, and judgment on the arbitrator’s decision may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. This agreement to arbitrate is binding upon any permitted successors, heirs, legal representatives, assigns, and transferees of you and us. The arbitrator may, at his or her own instance or upon the written request of you or us, issue written directions as to the scope and timetable for discovery. If the arbitrator should determine that the matter(s) in dispute may be resolved by a review of a written record and that a hearing is not necessary, you and we agree to effectively waive our rights to a hearing. The arbitrator shall be charged to draft and issue a written opinion reciting the facts as determined and the applicable law as applied. The arbitrator may award injunctive and other equitable relief, as well as an award of monetary damages. No claim of fraud, duress, or other basis for revocation of contract made with respect to these agreed Terms of Use shall limit or preclude the enforcement of this agreement to arbitrate except as such fraud, duress, or other basis for revocation shall arise with particularity to this agreement to arbitrate, and each party conclusively agrees that this provision shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with the separability doctrine of Prima Paint Corp. v. Flood and Conklin Mfg. Co., 388 U.S. 395 (1967), meaning that any claim of unenforceability of these Terms of Use must first be heard by an arbitrator consistent with this Section 19 rather than by any court.
17.5 Waiver. Neither you nor CARTER JOEY will participate in a class action or class-wide arbitration for any Claims covered by this agreement to arbitrate. YOU ARE GIVING UP YOUR RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE AS A CLASS REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS MEMBER ON ANY CLASS CLAIM YOU MAY HAVE AGAINST US INCLUDING ANY RIGHT TO CLASS ARBITRATION OR ANY CONSOLIDATION OF INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATIONS.
17.6 Improperly Filed Claims. All Claims brought under this Section 16 must be resolved in accordance with this Section 16, and you and we both conclusively agree to that. All Claims filed or brought contrary to this Section 16 shall be considered improperly filed. Should you file a Claim contrary to the procedures set forth in this Section 16, CARTER JOEY shall be entitled to recover its reasonable attorneys' fees and costs actually incurred in disputing and defending it, provided that CARTER JOEY has notified you in writing of the improperly filed Claim and that you have failed to promptly withdraw the Claim.

- Miscellaneous

If any part of these Terms of Use is held invalid or unenforceable, that portion shall be construed in a manner consistent with applicable law to reflect, as nearly as possible, the original intentions of you and us, and the remaining portions shall remain in full force and effect.
Any failure by us to enforce or exercise any provision(s) of these Terms of Use or related rights shall not constitute a waiver of that provision or right or of any other or additional rights.
The section titles in these Terms of Use are for convenience of reference only and have no legal or contractual effect.
