    Supreme Court Decision Syllabus (SCOTUS Podcast)

    Following what the Supreme Court is actually doing can be daunting. Reporting on the subject is often only done within the context of political narratives of the day — and following the Court’s decisions and reading every new case can be a non-starter. The purpose of this Podcast is to make it as easy as possible for members of the public to source information about what is happening at the Supreme Court. For that reason, we read every Opinion Syllabus without any commentary whatsoever. Further, there are no advertisements or sponsors. We call it “information sourcing,” and we hope that the podcast is a useful resource for members of the public who want to understand the legal issues of the day, prospective law students who want to get to know legal language and understand good legal writing, and attorneys who can use the podcast to be better advocates for their clients.

    New Prime v Oliveira (Arbitration) Jan 15, 2019
    Show notes

    Send us Fan Mail

    Court holds an independent contractor truck driver can not be forced into arbitration because the 1925 arbitration act excludes transportation workers who are engaged in interstate commerce. Also holds that “independent contractors” are considered to have signed “contracts of employment” even though they are not in an explicit employer employee relationship.
    Full disclosure: as a long time truck driver, i have long known companies like new prime, swift, and cr england, to be engaged in preying on brand new truck drivers with their “lease purchase, independent contractor” agreements.
    Most of the industry knows it, and if you sat down at any truck stop lunch counter and said “i’m thinking of signing a lease with [one of the previously mentioned companies]” you would quite litterally hear a chorus of veterans telling you not to — an instant groan, and a bunch if people truly trying to help the new guy from making a huge mistake.
    So i’m quite glad this went the way it did.

    Schein v Archer & White Jan 10, 2019
    Show notes

    Send us Fan Mail

    Arbitration agreements that contractually deligate questions of arbitrarily to an arbitrator do exactly that — no matter if the request seeking to compell arbitration is “wholy groundless”.
