Full of Sound and Fury, Signifying Nothing: Second Circuit Chides Employer's Unfair Arbitration Terms, Tet Still Enforces Agreement

Authors

Michael C. Barbarula

First Paragraph

In Ragone v. Atlantic Video at Manhattan Center, the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit enforced an arbitration agreement after the defendants waived provisions that may have been unenforceable and unconscionable. The Court also found that ESPN, a non-signatory to the arbitration agreement, could arbitrate the dispute as its business was linked to the employment contract.
