The opinion

The Marshall Circuit Court denied the motion to compel arbitration filed by Cook's Pest Control, Inc. ("Cook's"), finding that the transaction did not involve interstate commerce; the court's ruling was based on our now abrogated decision in Sisters of the Visitation v. Cochran Plastering Co. , 775 So.2d 759 (Ala. 2000). We reverse the order denying the motion and remand the cause for consideration in light of Service Corp. International v. Fulmer , 883 So.2d 621 (Ala. 2003), and Bowen v. Security Pest Control, Inc. , 879 So.2d 1139 (Ala. 2003).

REVERSED AND REMANDED.

BROWN and WOODALL, JJ., concur.

LYONS and JOHNSTONE, JJ., concur in the result.
