Overview: Denial of an employer's motion to compel arbitration was proper because arbitration agreement's class arbitration waiver was contrary to public policy and unenforceable, in that it impermissibly interfered with employees' ability to vindicate unwaivable rights under Lab. Code, §§ 1194 and 2802. An arbitrator selection provision was unconscionable.
