Points forts
- Represented Alliant Credit Union, Space Coast Credit Union, Valley First Credit Union, First Tech Credit Union, Noble Credit Union and Kinecta Credit Union in class action cases filed by The Mexican American Legal Defense and Education Fund (MALDEF), a public interest group dedicated to protecting immigrants’ rights.
- Represented VyStar Credit Union in a class action pending in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida in which VyStar filed a motion to compel arbitration but rather than rule on the motion based on the parties’ briefs, the district court ordered a bench trial on the limited issue of whether the arbitration provision was properly implemented.
- Appealed a Florida district court's denial of Space Coast's motion to compel arbitration in a class action, where the court found Space Coast waived its right to arbitrate after the AAA declined the claim and Plaintiffs’ counsel initiated a class action.
