Menard moved to compel arbitration based on an Employee/Employer Agreement (EEA) Johnson signed, which included an arbitration provision and a delegation clause. The trial court denied Menard's motion to compel arbitration. The appellate court affirmed, holding that both the delegation provision and the arbitration agreement lacked valid consideration because Menard retained an unlimited and unilateral right to modify the EEA, rendering its promises illusory.","primaryTopic":"contracts","topicSlugs":["contracts","employment-law","civil-procedure","appellate-procedure","standard-of-review"],"outcomeNorm":"affirmed","officialSourceUrl":"https://www.courts.mo.gov/file.jsp?id=179018","detailUrl":"https://ott.law/missouri-courts/opinions/telissah-johnson-v-menard-inc-d84138","relatedPracticeAreas":[{"slug":"employment","label":"Employment Law","href":"/practice-areas/employment","score":38,"source":"tag","evidence":["tag: employment","topic: employment-law","text: employer","text: employment","text: discrimination"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/employment"},{"slug":"corporate","label":"Corporate Law","href":"/practice-areas/corporate","score":12,"source":"topic","evidence":["topic: contracts"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/corporate"},{"slug":"litigation","label":"Civil Litigation","href":"/practice-areas/litigation","score":12,"source":"topic","evidence":["topic: civil-procedure","topic: appellate-procedure"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/litigation"}],"role":"appellant"}]}
