  • affirming district court’s denial of motion to dismiss under Rule 12 based on a mandatory arbitration agreement
  • declining to construe plaintiff’s motion to dismiss as a motion to compel arbitration when plaintiff did not “frame its argument in terms of mandatory arbitration but in terms of judicial preclusion”
  • “Rather than affirmatively seek arbitration in accordance with the agreement, [movant’s] motion focused on preventing [non-movant] from resolving any dispute in the courts, in accordance with the agreement’s provision that disputes would be settled ‘without recourse to the courts.’ ”
  • “federal appellate jurisdiction ordinarily ‘depends on the existence of a decision by the District Court that ends the litigation on the merits and leaves nothing for the court to do but execute the judgment’ ”
