Supreme Court denies review in arbitration case: Samaniego v. Empire Today LLC

On Wednesday, July 11, 2012, the Supreme Court denied review in Samaniego v. Empire Today, no. S202510.

In this case, the Court of Appeal (First Appellate District, Division Three) refused to enforce an arbitration clause, finding it unconscionable under Armendariz and rejecting the defendant's argument that Concepcion precluded that result.  Samaniego v. Empire Today LLC, 205 Cal.App.4th 1138 (2012). 

Here is my original post on the unpublished opinion handed down on April 5, 2012.  The opinion was ordered published on May 7, 2012.
