Filing 168 ENDORSED ORDER: Presently pending before the Court are Defendants' motions to compel arbitration (Docs. #84; #85; #87; #88; #89). The Court held a hearing on November 17, 2022, where, among other things, the parties offered argument on whether the arbitration agreements in this case may be unenforceable due to duress. It may be necessary for the Court to decide whether the duress issue may be determined by a court in the first instance, or must only be determined through arbitration. See, e.g., Buckeye Check Cashing, Inc. v. Cardegna, 546 U.S. 440 (2006); Prima Paint Corp. v. Flood & Conklin Mfg. Co., 388 U.S. 395 (1967). Despite hundreds of pages of briefing, this issue appears to have only been addressed by the parties in two footnotes (Doc. #84, fn. 7 and Doc. #111 fn. 15). The parties are directed to submit additional briefing on this issue as follows: On or before February 27, 2023, each side (not party) shall file a memoranda of law addressing only the issue of whether the duress argument may be determined by a court in the first instance or must be submitted to arbitration. Although this case presently includes three plaintiffs and five defendants, the interests of the parties on both sides are significantly aligned on this issue. As such, the Court will accept only one joint memoranda of law from Plaintiffs, limited to 10 pages, and only one joint memoranda of law from Defendants, limited to 10 pages. On or before March 3, 2023, each side (not party) may file a joint response, limited to 5 pages. Signed by Judge Thomas P. Barber on 2/13/2023. (ANL) |
