Sending a former employee’s wrongful termination claim to an arbitrator, the California Court of Appeal has ruled that his employment arbitration agreement was not unconscionable and deserved to be enforced. Sanchez v. CarMax Auto Superstores of California, LLC, No. B244772 (Cal. Ct. App. Mar. 4, 2014). The Court found that the agreement’s limitations on discovery and on “just cause” terminations, among others, were not substantively unconscionable, and so reversed a lower court order denying arbitration.
