Second Circuit Affirms District Court Decision to Deny a Motion to Compel Arbitration

On August 12, 2024, the Second Circuit affirmed the District Court’s decision that a sexual harassment case involving facts that pre-date the enactment of the Ending Forced Arbitration Act (EFAA) but that continued to accrue after that date, cannot be forced into arbitration.  This is the first decision by any federal appellate court in the country confirming this breadth of the EFAA’s reach.  We stand with all sexual harassment victims and their right to be free from forced arbitration.  We thank Public Justice for supporting our client and our position with an amicus brief before the Second Circuit.
