SUPREME COURT BACKS 'LOOK THROUGH' JURISDICTION, THEN REVERSES AN ARBITRATION ORDER

摘要

The first decision in the group of three arbitration cases argued in the 2008-2009 U.S. Supreme Court term arrived last month, with the Court reversing a Fourth U.S. Circuit Court arbitration order. The decision sent a credit card provider back to a state trial court to prove its case.rnBut Associate Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg's opinion in Vaden v. Discover Bank et al., No. 07-773 (March 9, 2009), doesn't necessarily mean that Discover Bank will have to fight its case in the Maryland court where it filed a debt collection action against original defendant Betty Vaden.
