Allegations that an agreement containing an arbitration clause is forged or fabricated defeat arbitrability because arbitration requires valid consent; where interim proceedings produced prima facie findings casting grave doubt on the document's authenticity, those findings are a relevant consideration and arbitration referral is inappropriate.

Appointment of an arbitrator when the arbitration agreement's existence is in serious dispute is premature and legally impermissible.
