This article addresses the question of whether arbitration violates Article III when federal statutory rights are at issue. The author rejects the principle of waiver, which is the traditional theory used to explain arbitration’s compatibility with Article III, in favor of appellate review theory. The author then applies appellate review theory to various forms of arbitration and addresses criticisms of the theory.
