Consternation grows as Supreme Court arbitration hearing draws near

Dana Kravetz was quoted in the Hotel Management article, “Consternation grows as Supreme Court arbitration hearing draws near,” published on October 12, 2017. The article addresses the pending decision of the United States Supreme Court in Epic Systems Corp. v. Lewis, a consolidated action dealing with the permissibility of class action waivers in employer arbitration agreements. Mr. Kravetz commented extensively on the practical effect of a ruling that might deem a class action waiver legal and enforceable. Specifically, he offered his view regarding the obligation of employees to agree to such a provision.
