Abstract
The U.S. Supreme Court hands down the first decision from a 2007‐08 docket that now includes four arbitration cases. Michael E. Johnson and Piret Loone, of New York, who wrote the January preview of the Preston v. Ferrer case, return to analyze the Court's holding that the Federal Arbitration Act preempts a California statute that a state appeals court had said sent a management contract dispute to the state's labor commissioner before the arbitrator.
