Live Nation Entertainment, Inc. v. Heckman
Pending petition
Issues: (1) Whether the Federal Arbitration Act protects all arbitration agreements or only a subset of traditional, bilateral arbitration agreements that the act’s drafters specifically envisioned; and (2) whether the FAA preempts California’s severability doctrine because it specifically targets and disproportionately invalidates arbitration agreements.
