Question:
Epic Systems is a Wisconsin health care software company. In 2014, Epic introduced a company policy that required employees to use individual arbitration in any disputes. Jacob Lewis, an Epic employee, agreed to the terms of the policy as instructed. In 2015, Lewis filed a collective action suit against Epic, claiming he and other employees had been denied overtime pay in violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938. Epic moved to dismiss the case and compel arbitration with Lewis. The district and appellate courts ruled in favor of Lewis, ruling that the arbitration agreement was unenforceable because it violated the National Labor Relations Act and Federal Arbitration Act.
Epic appealed to the Supreme Court. Do you think the Supreme Court compelled Lewis to arbitrate?
