This decision holds that Viking River Cruises, Inc. v. Moriana (2022) 142 S.Ct. 1906 overrules the cases that followed Iskanian v. CLS Transportation Los Angeles, LLC (2014) 59 Cal.4th 348 in holding that pre-dispute arbitration clauses were unenforceable to compel arbitration of the individual PAGA claim(s) of the plaintiff employee.  Viking River held that the individual plaintiff acts in part as a principal in bringing the individual PAGA claim(s) and so can agree to arbitrate them.  California’s rule that required the State’s consent to arbitration of individual PAGA claims is inconsistent with Viking River and preempted by the FAA.  Since the arbitration clause in this case chose AAA rules, which delegate arbitrability questions to the arbitrator, the arbitrator should decide whether the employer agreed to arbitrate plaintiff’s non-individual PAGA claims as well.
