Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit April 3, 1995, 94-3314 (Ishwar Jain v. Henri Courier De Mere)

FLAUM, Circuit Judge.

This case presents an issue of first impression: whether federal courts have power to compel arbitration between two foreign nationals where their arbitration agreement fails to specify a location for the arbitration or a method of choosing arbitrators. We hold that federal courts have this power and therefore reverse the decision of the district court.
