How likely would "Arbitration Fairness Act" become law?
Poast new message in this thread
Date: April 1st, 2015 7:52 AM Author: Transparent useless brakes ATT MOBILITY v. CONCEPTION is killing class action lawsuits. Sen. Al Franken introduced "Arbitration Fairness Act" in 2011, but nothing has occurred. He reintroduced it in 2015, but how likely would it become a law?

Whereas you have Chamber of Commerce and who knows how many other lobbyists lined up against it. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2843807&forum_id=2#27593684) |

Date: April 1st, 2015 8:35 AM Author: bateful garnet cuckoldry codepig It didn't even pass when the Dems controlled Congress. Too many campaign contributors benefit from arbitration. There's zero chance it will pass in the near future, I doubt it will ever pass. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2843807&forum_id=2#27593837) |

Date: April 1st, 2015 8:42 AM Author: Mint dysfunction menage Concepcion hasnt actually killed class actions at all. It just means you file a fuck ton of actions based on state law and settle them for $5 million a piece instead of one action that you settle for $100 million. Pain in the ass but it hasnt cost any jobs for lawyers. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2843807&forum_id=2#27593848) |

Yeah, let me call up the in-house counsel for my internet provider and see whether they'll negotiate the venue provision that would require me to fly to Louisiana for arbitration.
After that, I'll work on my other utility companies. |
