California Court Strikes Down Class Waiver Arbitration Clause

California Court of Appeal finds a way around Concepcion and declines to enforce class waiver clause in   Imburgia v. DIRECTV, Inc., B239361 (2nd Dist. Div. 1 April 7, 2014).  As the valuable blog, California Mediation and Arbitration summarizes, "Concepcion does not necessarily invalidate all class action waivers.  The objective of the FAA is to carry out the intent of the parties, and contract interpretation may lead to the conclusion that the parties intended to proceed under state law rules that allow for the invalidation of class action waivers."
