Henry Schein Inc. v. Archer and White Sales Inc. - Post-Argument SCOTUScast

On December 18, 2020 the Supreme Court heard oral argument in Henry Schein Inc. v. Archer and White Sales Inc. The question presented was whether a provision in an arbitration agreement that exempts certain claims from arbitration negates an otherwise clear and unmistakable delegation of questions of arbitrability to an arbitrator. The Fifth Circuit stated that an agreement that exempts certain disputes from arbitration does not clearly and unmistakably delegate arbitrability to the arbitrator for disputes that fall within the exception. Erika Birg, Partner at Nelson Mullins Riley & Scarborough LLP, joins us today to discuss this ruling.
