Court of Florence, judgment of 6 July 2026, No. 3931

An arbitration clause contained in a contract concluded with a consumer, which derogates from the jurisdiction of the courts without having been specifically approved by the weaker party, is null as unfair.
Filing an application for a payment order does not amount to a waiver of the arbitration clause, since the existence of the clause does not prevent a party from applying for and obtaining a payment order from the ordinary court for a claim arising from the contract.
