Upon receiving a petition to review the appeal the North Carolina Supreme Court remanded it for our further consideration in light of its opinion in Cyclone Roofing Co. v. LaFave Co., 312 N.C. 224, 321 S.E. 2d 872 (1984), handed down after our decision was arrived at. After reconsidering the appeal in that light we are of the opinion that the decision previously made should not be altered. In deciding the appeal we considered that the view expressed in the dissenting opinion in Cyclone Roofing Co. v. LaFave Co. [67 N.C. App. 278, 312 S.E. 2d 709 (1984)] might become the law of the case upon its appeal, as has happened, but were of the opinion that that case has no application to this one in any event, since the circumstances tending to show a waiver here are so much more abundant than they were there. We are still of that opinion. Also, in arriving at our previous decision we were aware that by virtue of G.S. 1-567.1 et seq. the public policy of the State favors the enforcement of contracts for arbitration and gave due consideration to that fact; but, as we understand it, the law of waiver is also a part of the State\u2019s public policy and it seems plain to us that under the circumstances recorded in this case defendant has waived its right to compulsory arbitration for the reasons heretofore stated.\nAffirmed.\nJudges Webb and Johnson concur.",
