: The UCL PractitionerWashington Supreme Court finds class action ban unconscionable: McKee v. AT&T Corp.
By Kimberly A. Kralowec
In McKee v. AT&T Corp., ___ P.3d ___ (Wash. Aug. 28, 2008), the Supreme Court of Washington refused to enforce a no-class-action arbitration clause, finding it substantively unconscionable. A tidbit: "Courts will not be easily deceived by attempts to unilaterally strip away consumer protections and remedies by efforts to cloak the waiver of important rights under an arbitration clause." Slip op. at 35; see also Scott v. Cingular Wireless, 161 P.3d 1000 (Wash. 2007). [Via ClassActionBlawg.com]
