Petition of the day

The petition of the day is:

McCutchen v. Harris
13-351

Issue: Whether the Federal Arbitration Act preempts a state-law rule that forbids arbitration of state-law employment-discrimination claims unless an arbitration agreement “clearly and specifically” refers to those claims, even when the parties agree to arbitrate “any legal disputes . . . which arise out of, or are related in any way to” the “employment . . . or its termination.”
