How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- “[The Union’s] grievance is arbitrable on its face. That means we will compel arbitration unless it may be said with positive assurance that the arbitration clause is not susceptible of an interpretation that covers the asserted dispute.”
- “Where the arbitration clause is broad, we presume arbitrability of disputes.”
- “[W]e do not hold that the arbitrator may, in fact, review and overturn NextEra’s revocation of Hofstra’s unescorted access privileges.... But the potential weakness of the Union’s claim on the merits is no defense to the arbitrability of this dispute, as a threshold question.”
- “[T]he Union’s grievance falls within the scope of the arbitration clause on its face. As a result, we must compel arbitration unless it may be said with positive assurance that the arbitration clause is not susceptible of an interpretation that covers the asserted dispute.”’
