Wait till someone writes a contract that makes the employee agree to binding arbitration in sexual harassment or race discrimination cases.

That should tie our entire Federal Court system in knots for the next thirteen years.

This case would probably tip the scales to the employer. I have not read the case but I suspect it deals more with the ability of Employees to sign their own rights away.

But I think there are federal laws on the books NOT including the right to class action that may be controlling.

I would be like trying to sign away the ADA (the “don’t hire a disabled person no matter what” actp) protections.

Complex stuff.

Those contracts exist, and have been held enforceable.
