DIRECTV v. Imburgia - Post-Argument SCOTUScast
SCOTUScast 11-6-15 featuring Cory Andrews
On October 6, 2015, the Supreme Court heard oral argument in DIRECTV v. Imburgia. This case involves a class action lawsuit which argues that DIRECTV improperly charged early termination fees to its customers. The question is whether the California Court of Appeal erred by holding that a reference to state law in an arbitration agreement governed by the Federal Arbitration Act requires the application of state law preempted by the Federal Arbitration Act.
To discuss the case, we have Cory Andrews, who is Senior Litigation Counsel at the Washington Legal Foundation.
