S.L. began working at a fast-food restaurant when she was 16 years old. At the beginning of her employment, she signed a mandatory arbitration agreement, promising to resolve any and all claims with her employer through an arbitration process. S.L. was injured on the job, and her mother filed suit against the restaurant to recover medical expenses related to the injury. The mother argued that S.L. disaffirmed the arbitration agreement by terminating her employment and filing suit against the company while still a minor. The restaurant company argued that S.L.'s minority did not prohibit enforcement of the arbitration agreement, because the lawsuit was for necessaries. Which party was correct?
