C.A. 4th
D060519
The Fourth Appellate District granted a petition for writ of mandate. The court held that although the trial court erred in construing Gentry v. Superior Court (2007) 42 Cal.4th 443 to preclude individual arbitration of employee claims against an employer in this class action lawsuit, it did not err in concluding that Gentry remained viable law, notwithstanding recent U.S. Supreme Court decisions suggesting that (I)Gentry was preempted by federal law.
