Lyft, Inc. v. Million Seifu
Paid petition · Court of Appeal of California, Second Appellate District, No. B301774 · judgment June 1, 2021
Before the decision, modestly above the 4.1% base rate. The model weighted this up for a circuit split argued in the petition, a business petitioner, and a petition citing one or two dissents.
Question presented
Does the Federal Arbitration Act require the enforcement of a bilateral arbitration agreement providing that a worker cannot raise representative claims under California’s Private Attorneys General Act, thereby preempting the contrary holding in Iskanian v. CLS Transportation Los Angeles LLC, 327 P.3d 129 (Cal. 2014)? This question is also presented in Viking River Cruises, Inc. v. Moriana, No. 20–1573 (U.S. filed May 10, 2021), and Coverall North America, Inc. v. Rivas, No. 21–268 (U.S. filed Aug. 20, 2021), among other cases.
