Abstract

The Supreme Court recently made a decision in the Coinbase v. Suski case regarding the question of arbitrability when there are conflicting agreements. The case involved a class action complaint in California federal court with two agreements: one sending arbitrability disputes to arbitration and the other sending them to the courts. The Supreme Court determined that a court must first decide which contract governs before addressing the question of arbitrability. The Court emphasized the importance of contract analysis and the need for a court to determine what the parties agreed to in their contracts. [Extracted from the article]
