Another new consumer arbitration opinion: Phillips v. Sprint PCS

In Phillips v. Sprint PCS, ___ Cal.App.4th ___ (Sept. 26, 2012), the Court of Appeal (First Appellate District, Division Three) affirmed an order compelling arbitration of a claim brought under the UCL's "fraudulent" prong. 

The opinion does not address the issue taken up by the en banc Ninth Circuit panel in Kilgore, namely, whether UCL claims for public injunctive relief remain inarbitrable after Concepcion.
