Legal Alert – Mandatory Employee Arbitration Heads to the U.S. Supreme Court
by John S. Delikanakis and Aleem A. Dhalla
Last Friday, the U.S. Supreme Court agreed to hear three cases with a similar question: whether employers can force employees to arbitrate employment claims on an individual basis and bar such claims from being brought collectively or as part of a class action. The three petitions for certiorari can be reviewed here. (1) N.L.R.B. v. Murphy Oil USA, Inc.; (2) Epic Sys. Corp. v. Lewis; and (3) Ernst & Young, LLP v. Morris.
