Paul Lurie: U.S. Supreme Court Arbitration Docket “The U.S. Supreme Court continues to exhibit interest in cases presenting arbitration issues, and recently it granted certiorari to review two arbitration matters next term. One of the matters, concerning whether a party resisting arbitration must show prejudice in order to establish a waiver by the other party of the right to arbitrate, has been dismissed by stipulation of the parties. In the other matter, the Court is postured to review Greenwood v. Compucredit Corp., in which the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals invalidated an arbitration agreement based upon its holding that the federal Credit Repair Organization Act specifically prohibits agreements that disallow a consumer’s right to sue in court for violations of the Act.”
