Task: Text Completion
Input (English): case in a court of law. The court of law would then have to decide whether the entire contract is valid simply in order to determine whether the arbitration clause is valid such that the case may be submitted to arbitration. Obviously, however, at this point res judicata would render any action taken by an arbitrator superfluous and irrelevant, and thus defeat the entire purpose of the arbitration clause, since the court of law would have already decided the larger substantive issue of contractual validity. The law under the FAA and Buckeye, therefore, mandates a different result. In the wake of Buckeye, courts have ruled that challenges to the entire contract, such as this one, are subject to arbitration. See, e.g., Sleeper Farms v. Agway, Inc., 506 F.3d 98, 102-03 (1st Cir.2007) (<HOLDING>); Community State Bank v. Strong, 485 F.3d 597,
