Luxor Cabs, Inc. v. Applied Underwriters Captive Risk Assurance Co.

(California Court of Appeal) - Held that an insurance company could not force an insured taxi cab company to arbitrate a workers' compensation insurance dispute. Affirmed the denial of the insurer's motion to compel arbitration.




an

Henry Schein, Inc. v. Archer and White Sales, Inc.

(United States Supreme Court) - Held that when a contract delegates to an arbitrator the threshold question of whether a dispute belongs in arbitration, a court must allow the arbitrator to decide the issue, even if the court thinks that the arbitrability claim is wholly groundless. That is, a court may not short-circuit the process by stepping in for the arbitrator. The "wholly groundless" exception is inconsistent with the Federal Arbitration Act. Justice Kavanaugh wrote the unanimous opinion, which resolved a circuit split.

Aspic Engineering and Construction Co. v. ECC Centcom Constructors, LLC

(United States Ninth Circuit) - Held that an arbitrator made an "irrational" decision in a contract dispute between two government contractors. Affirmed the district court's vacatur of the arbitration award, in this case involving contracts to construct buildings and facilities in Afghanistan.




an

Vasquez v. San Miguel Produce, Inc.

(California Court of Appeal) - Held that temporary workers assigned to pack produce for a produce company must arbitrate their claims alleging labor law violations, because their staffing firm contract mandated arbitration. It was inconsequential that they chose not to name the staffing firm in their complaint. Reversed and remanded with directions to compel arbitration.

an

Metropolitan Life Insurance Co. v. Bucsek

(United States Second Circuit) - Held that an insurance company did not have to arbitrate a former employee's claims before the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA), an entity with which the company had severed ties. The FINRA arbitration code no longer applied to the company, even though the employee had once been registered as a securities industry representative of the company.




an

Salgado v. Carrows Restaurants Inc.

(California Court of Appeal) - Addressed whether an arbitration agreement could be enforced, given that it was signed only after the employee filed her employment discrimination lawsuit. Reversed and remanded for further findings.



  • Dispute Resolution & Arbitration
  • Labor & Employment Law

an

Zakaryan v. The Men's Wearhouse, Inc.

(California Court of Appeal) - Held that a store manager complaining of wage-and-hour violations did not have to arbitrate his claim under California's Private Attorneys General Act (PAGA). Also, courts may not split a solitary PAGA claim and send only part of it to arbitration. Affirmed the denial of the store's motion to compel arbitration.

Landau v. Rheinold

(United States Second Circuit) - Affirmed the confirmation of an arbitration award issued by a rabbinical tribunal. Two groups of Hasidic Jews had agreed to arbitrate a trademark dispute before the tribunal, and then the winning side sought to confirm the award in secular court. The Second Circuit held that the district court properly exercised subject matter jurisdiction and confirmed the award.

an

McDonnel Group, L.L.C. v. Great Lakes Insurance SE, UK Branch

(United States Fifth Circuit) - In an insurance dispute, addressed an issue relating to the Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards. Held that an insurance contract's conformity-to-statute provision did not negate the agreement to arbitrate.

(California Court of Appeal) - A law firm's client was unable to compel arbitration of a fee dispute with his former attorneys. The case involved California's Mandatory Fee Arbitration Act.




an

Lacayo v. Catalina Restaurant Group Inc.

(California Court of Appeal) - Dismissed part of appeal and affirmed part. Plaintiff filed a class action complaint against Defendant alleging wage and hour violations and a unfair competition law claim (UCL). Defendants sought to compel arbitration. The trial court granted Defendant’s motion as to Plaintiffs individual claims, allowed the arbitrator to decide the class action claims, and denied the motion as to the UCL claim. The appeals court found that the motion that granted arbitration could not be appealed and found no error in the denial of arbitration for the UCL claim.

Mejia v. Merchants Building Maintenance

(California Court of Appeal) - Affirmed denial of motion to compel arbitration. An employee bringing a Private Attorney General’s Act claim may not be compelled to arbitrate that portion of the claim that seeks to recover underpaid wages.



  • Dispute Resolution & Arbitration
  • Labor & Employment Law

an

Archer and White Sales, Inc. v. Henry Schein, Inc.

(United States Fifth Circuit) - Affirmed. On remand from the Supreme Court the panel determined that the parties to an arbitration clause did not clearly and unmistakably delegate the question of arbitrability to an arbitrator and that the district court had the power to make this determination.




an

Gupta v. Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC

(United States Seventh Circuit) - Affirmed. A former employee alleging discrimination could be compelled to arbitrate his claims because he didn't opt out of the company's arbitration agreement.




an

Dorman v. The Charles Schwab Corporation

(United States Ninth Circuit) - Reversed. The panel concluded that Amaro v. Continental Can Co., which held that ERISA claims are not arbitrable, is no longer good law in light of intervening Supreme Court case law, including American Express Co. v. Italian Colors Restaurant.



  • ERISA
  • Dispute Resolution & Arbitration

an

Franco v. Greystone Ridge Condominium

(California Court of Appeal) - Reversed. Plaintiffs, employees of Defendant, signed an agreement with Defendant requiring binding arbitration of employment disputes after the complaint was filed. The trial court denied Defendant’s motion to compel arbitration agreeing with Plaintiff that the arbitration agreement referred to future claims not the past ones brought by Plaintiff against Defendant. The appeals court disagreed stating that the agreement to arbitrate was clear and there was no qualifying language as to past or future events.
