Abstract
As of 2024, the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of California issued a permanent injunction, barring the enforcement of California’s Assembly Bill 51 (“AB 51”). California’s AB 51 was a state law aimed at prohibiting California employers from requiring arbitration agreements as a condition of employment, protecting workers from being forced into arbitration. The law was set to take effect in 2020 but was delayed by immediate legal challenges. After four years of litigation, the state law was permanently enjoined.
The print edition of the issue has also been released. This post was originally published on the Cardozo Journal of Conflict Resolution website on October 13, 2024.
