The field of arbitration has been a dynamic subject of litigation
in the courts. In recent years, the U.S. Supreme Court has decided
dozens of cases that involve the interpretation of the Federal
Arbitration Act. Moreover, as the Court has broadened the use of
arbitration as the primary and/or exclusive tribunal for deciding
many types of civil law disputes, the lower federal courts have
been inundated with cases involving the application and
interpretation of the federal statute. In addition, courts in every
state have been presented with an avalanche of cases implicating
the federal arbitration statute and the way in which it overlaps
with or conflicts with state law doctrines. This casebook presents
a comprehensive treatment of the legal issues involved in
arbitration. The first four chapters address issues that arise
under written agreements to arbitrate contained in private
contracts. They present the law that has evolved under the Federal
Arbitration Act, a statute that governs arbitration in contracts
involving interstate commerce. Chapter 5 looks at arbitration in
the labor management context that is governed by the Labor
Management Relations Act. Chapter 6 addresses international
commercial arbitration. Together the book is designed to give
students a thorough understanding of arbitration law, and to
provide a solid foundation for legal practice, whether in
alternative dispute resolution tribunals or in the civil justice
system. This latest new edition presents an up to date treatment of
this quickly evolving field. It includes all of the recent Supreme
Court about arbitration, including Kindred Nursing Centers v.
Clark, DirectTV v. Imgurgia, Epic Systems v. Lewis, Lamps Plus v.
Varela, Henry Shein v. Archer, and New Prime v. Oliveira. In
addition, it contains a detailed section on the subject of
Separability, Delegation Clauses and Unconscionability, an area of
law that has become a source of considerable litigation in the wake
of the Supreme Court's decision in Rent-A-Center v. Jackson in
2010. It also includes sections on Arbitration Involving Nonparties
to Arbitration Agreements, because that too has also become an area
of increasing importance in recent years. Additionally, it contains
extensive materials on Arbitration and Class Actions, and On-line
Arbitration, both in the domestic and international arbitration
context. We hope that this new edition of Arbitration Law will
provide law students with a thorough understanding of all the
doctrinal and analytic tools needed to successfully practice law
today. The cases revisit many issues that students encountered in
their first year courses in contracts and civil procedure, but from
a different perspective. We also hope that by revisiting those
subjects from a different perspective, students will gain a deeper
understanding of the interaction between substantive law and the
procedures available for addressing legal claims.
