Holdings:

The Virginia Court made the following holding:

• Va. Code Ann. § 8.01-581.02(B) authorizes a trial court to determine whether there is an agreement to arbitrate the specific controversy before the trial court, that is, to decide questions of arbitrability. In deciding who determines questions of arbitrability, contractual silence or ambiguity is considered insufficient to give that authority to the arbitrators. In the absence of a clear agreement, parties should not be forced to submit matters to arbitration which they may have contemplated would be decided by a court.
