"They were appreciative that we let them know that we have a valid contract." Marriott generally steers clear of properties facing ownership and management disputes. But the call from a senior Trump executive to the CEO of Marriott, which manages more than 6,000 hotels, raised the awkward matter of how American companies interact with a business owned by the president. Marriott, like most major international companies, has significant business and public policy interests before the Trump administration. | not-forward | www.voanews.com | https://www.voanews.com/a/panama-trump-hotel-management/4209800.html |

Judge Cote's decision, Latif v. Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, et al., No. 18-CV-11528, is the first judicial opinion to address the validity of CPLR 7515's pre-dispute arbitration ban. In Latif, the plaintiff alleged, among other things, a hostile work environment claim based on sexual harassment. The defendants filed a motion to compel the claims to arbitration based on an arbitration agreement the plaintiff agreed to at the commencement of his employment. The only issue in dispute was whether plaintiff's claims of sexual harassment were subject to arbitration in light of CPLR 7515. Judge Cote held that the plaintiff's sexual harassment claims were subject to mandatory arbitration because application of CPLR 7515 to invalidate the parties' agreement to arbitrate such claims would be inconsistent with the FAA. | not-forward | www.jdsupra.com | https://www.jdsupra.com/legalnews/the-southern-district-of-new-york-holds-54051 |

The DIRECTV Customer Agreement stated that it was governed by the FAA and included two clauses: 1) any legal claim would be resolved "only by binding arbitration" and 2) a class arbitration waiver. The class arbitration waiver notably included a non-severability clause, which stated that the entire section of the agreement discussing arbitration would be invalidated if the class arbitration waiver was unenforceable in the "law of your state."

ISLAMABAD: The Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) on Friday filed 20 appeals against the order of an Appellate Tribunal of Inland Revenue (ATIR) in a matter pertaining to the imposition of Rs5bn additional tax on the undeclared offshore properties owned by the Saifullah family. FBR's inland revenue commissioner challenged before the Islamabad High Court (IHC) the tribunal decision to set aside the additional tax amount against the business family. The counsel for the revenue board, Ashfaq Hussain Naqvi, filed the appeals. In the appeals, the FBR stated the ATIR decided the matter on technicalities without discussing the merits of the case, misinterpreted the provisions of the law, and ignored the settled principles of the interpretation of the fiscal statute. The FBR said the tribunal misconceived that the companies, which are separate legal entities, were being taxed rather the individuals who had admitted their investment in the companies of which they have provided no details. | not-forward | www.dawn.com | https://www.dawn.com/news/1723382/ihc-help-sought-to-reimpose-rs5bn-tax-on-saifullah-family |

In Starbucks Corp. v. McKinney, an eight-Justice majority trimmed the power of the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) to enjoin employers pending administrative enforcement proceedings. The decision broke with the Third, Fifth, and Sixth Circuits, which had required preliminary injunctions to issue upon a showing that the NLRB's legal theory was "substantial and not frivolous." Rejecting that government-friendly rule, the Court instead agreed with the Fourth, Seventh, Eighth, and Ninth Circuits that injunctions enforcing the labor statute are subject to judicial scrutiny under the traditional four-factor test—which requires a demonstration of irreparable harm and likelihood of success on the merits. The decision will surely blunt what had been a potent weapon in the NLRB's enforcement arsenal. | not-forward | clsbluesky.law.columbia.edu | https://clsbluesky.law.columbia.edu/2024/07/16/wachtell-lipton-discusses-the-supreme-courts-business-docket-last-term |

Earlier in 2019, UnitedHealth reduced TeamHealth's reimbursements for certain out-of-network claims by about 50 percent, prompting TeamHealth to sue UnitedHealth in eight states, according to Moody's. To understand the implications of UnitedHealth's feud with TeamHealth, Moody's analysts examined a similar dispute between Nashville, Tenn.-based Envision Healthcare and UnitedHealth. In the end, Envision agreed to lower reimbursements, resulting in an earnings decline for Envision.

The Allegation As a matter of fact, customers have sued Wells Fargo for charging improper overdraft fees. The company was charged of having manipulated transaction entries to generate greater overdraft fees. Transactions were re-sequenced by the bank so that the largest withdrawals were deducted first instead of being cleared in the order in which they were received. As a result, customers' balances dwindled faster, resulting in a larger number of 'overdrawn' transactions, each of which then became chargeable. Moreover, as a result of such practices, funds were overdrawn several times a day in small amounts. In addition to Wells Fargo, over 30 banks have been sued on similar grounds. Notably, Bank of America Corp. ( BAC ) and JPMorgan Chase & Co. ( JPM ) have consented to paying millions to settle such claims in the past few quarters. Thus Wells Fargo's fate relating to this litigation will be closely followed.

Anglo American PLC's (LSE:AAL) plans to slim down its sprawling mining empire have hit a bump after US rival Peabody Energy pulled out of a $3.8 billion agreement to buy its steelmaking coal assets in Australia. Peabody had agreed last year to acquire Anglo's portfolio of metallurgical coal mines in Queensland, but the deal collapsed this week following a gas ignition incident at the Moranbah North mine in March. Anglo insists this event does not count as what lawyers call a "material adverse change", essentially a significant negative event that can void a contract, and says it will take the matter to arbitration to claim damages for wrongful termination. Citi's analysts describe the move as no surprise, noting that the market had already priced in the likelihood of Peabody walking away. | not-forward | www.proactiveinvestors.com | https://www.proactiveinvestors.com/companies/news/1077033/what-now-for-anglo-american-after-3-8bn-coal-sale-falls-through-1077033.html |
FuelCell Energy Inc. said it has been notified by the US Department of Energy that it has been selected to design, construct, and operate a 250 kw direct fuel cell (DFC) at the Harrison Mining Corp. coal mine, Cadiz, Ohio. Negotiations leading to a final award are expected to be completed by the end of September. The objective of the project is to reduce methane emissions associated with underground coal mining operations. Costs for the $5.4 million, 3-year program will be shared equally by DOE and FuelCell Energy. Site design is planned to begin this fall, with construction anticipated to be underway by January 2001 and operations to commence in the third quarter of 2002. | forward | www.ogj.com | https://www.ogj.com/pipelines-transportation/pipelines/article/17252581/electric-power-news-briefs-september-18 |

The Delhi High Court in ARG Outlier Media Pvt. Ltd. v. HT Media Ltd. 2023 O.M.P (COMM) 161/2023, while dismissing a petition stated that once an arbitrator has accepted an agreement and passed an award on the basis of that agreement, then the agreement cannot be set aside on the ground that it was insufficiently stamped. It further held that since the petitioner had not raised an issue regarding the agreement being insufficiently stamped at any stage while leading evidence and since the petitioner had not raised an objection as to the validity of the agreement before the arbitrator, the same cannot be brought into question under Section 34 of the Arbitration Act once the arbitrator has already passed an award based on such an agreement.

Under the arbitration process it was agreed Meta would have an additional rent-free period, saving it €6.7 million in rent. According to sources, however, Meta may now pursue compensation for two other extensions of time, which were claimed earlier in the construction process.

We previously wrote about a Ninth Circuit appeal taken by Verizon Wireless, Inc. after a California district court judge held that its arbitration agreement, which required mass arbitration disputes to be resolved by multiple rounds of bellwether arbitrations, was substantively unconscionable because it effectively eliminated the claims of thousands of Verizon customers who were required to wait for up to 156 years for the bellwether arbitrations to conclude. It has now been reported that the Verizon litigation has been settled, and the Ninth Circuit docket reflects that the appeal is being held in abeyance pending final court approval of the settlement. Accordingly, the Verizon appeal will not provide much needed appellate guidance on the use of batching and bellwether procedures to resolve mass arbitration demands.

The contract of assignment dated 21 May 2014, whereby Energoproekt assigned its rights against Enka to the ultimate employer (PJSC Unipro ("Unipro")), reiterated the arbitration agreement in the Contract. A fire broke out in February 2016 at the plant, causing substantial damage. Between November 2016 and May 2017, Unipro's insurer (Chubb Russia) paid out c. US$400 million under an insurance policy, thereby becoming subrogated to Unipro's rights as against Enka. On 25 May 2019, Chubb Russia (a defendant / the respondent in the English proceedings) commenced legal action against Enka before the Moscow Arbitrazh Court ("Moscow Claim"), blaming Enka to have caused the fire due to its defective fuel oil pipelines. Enka denied any liability, on the basis that the works alleged to have caused the fire were excluded from scope and performed by another subcontractor. This was seemingly conceded by Unipro in its correspondence with Enka during the aftermath of the fire. | not-forward | www.globalarbitrationnews.com | https://www.globalarbitrationnews.com/2020/05/20/english-court-of-appeal-provides-much-needed-clarity-on-the-proper-law-of-an-arbitration-agreement-victory-for-the-curial-law |

Dobin's Tesla, being a 2021 Model Y, also ran on the now-outdated "HW3" hardware kit — a kit that CEO Elon Musk has since announced will never support the entirety of the company's FSD software. Between the undisclosed barrier of the Safety Score and the eventual reveal of HW3's lack of capability, the arbitrator handed Dobin a victory in arbitration. The attorney hopes that the cost of the process has made Tesla more amenable to refunds, but that's still a very open — and highly optimistic, knowing Tesla — question.

There followed action brought by Sanofi-Aventis in the U.S., alleging Genentech's infringement of the two U.S. patents, and before the International Court of Arbitration (ICC), seeking the payment of outstanding royalties. The U.S. courts found in favour of Genentech, but Genentech was found liable by the ICC for the payment of the running royalties. The arbitral award meant that payments already made by Genentech under licence could not be reclaimed, and that payments due to Sanofi-Aventis were payable whether or not the patent had been revoked or infringed (despite the invalidity of the European patent), on the basis that the licence had been granted to allow Genentech to use the HMCV enhancer for the production of proteins without incurring risk of infringement action.

Responding to their contention that the Federal Arbitration Act (FAA) was intended to facilitate disputes between commercial entities, AFSA asserts that Congress specifically intended that the FAA apply to individuals. As support for its position, AFSA cites to Justice Breyer's observation in Allied-Bruce Terminix Cos. v. Dobson, 513 U.S. 265 (1995) regarding the potential advantages of arbitration for individuals. AFSA also challenges the AGs' contention that mandatory pre-dispute arbitration is procedurally unfair to consumers and jeopardizes the right of consumers to seek judicial redress, citing to further observations of Justice Breyer in Terminix regarding the many advantages of arbitration.

But at the same time, the competition regulator has launched an investigation against the Jeff Bezos owned company for an antitrust claim brought by more than one Indian sellers' organizations. Each of them has made similar charges. They allege Amazon offers preferential treatment to some sellers as well as indulges in predatory pricing.

The Roku Channel is Roku's own OTT (over the top) TV app. Just last month, Roku was involved in a spat with Fox Corp. over streaming rights. Roku threatened to shut down Fox apps from its platforms ahead of the Super Bowl. The contract dispute showed that the stakes are getting higher for the tech platforms like Roku, which control the pipes that deliver the apps, and for the media companies that control the content. Roku, like Amazon and Apple, negotiates with the media companies over rights to subscription fees and advertising revenue. On Thursday, another crack between streaming rivals emerged with Apple and YouTube, for instance. YouTube TV, YouTube's OTT TV service that costs $50 a month, will no longer accept subscriptions through Apple's App Store. That rift appears to be about sharing subscription fees, because Apple typically takes a 30 percent cut. | not-forward | adage.com | https://adage.com/article/digital/roku-fourth-quarter-report-shows-fastest-growing-channel-was-its-own-publisher-tensions-rose/2237301 |

A new study, commissioned by Align Technology Inc, San Jose, Calif, shows that Invisalign ® practices experience increased case growth and return on investment after integrating an iTero ® intraoral scanner into their workflow. The peer-reviewed study, published by The Journal of Clinical Dentistry, was designed to determine the percentage increase in Invisalign treatment case submissions following the introduction of an iTero intraoral scanner into general dental and orthodontic practices. When projected across the first 12 months following acquisition of an iTero scanner, the study found an increase of 5.92 Invisalign cases for the entire sample of 1,961 GP dentists and orthodontists, and an additional 3.41 Invisalign cases for the subset of 319 lower-volume, North American GP dentists. This translates to a 19.11% increase in Invisalign cases over 12 months and a sustained increase of 17.64% over 24 months. | not-forward | orthodonticproductsonline.com | https://orthodonticproductsonline.com/industry-news/company-news/align-sponsored-study-finds-increased-invisalign-case-growth-roi-practices-integrating-itero-scanner |

The uranium mine, located in northern Saskatchewan, has been closed for more than 30 years and Cameco's licence renewal was the topic of discussion at public hearings Wednesday night in Saskatoon.

Still, the case was not settled and in January 2020 in an action filed at the São Paulo Court of Justice, Coca-Cola Brasil asked for the annulment of the purchase of Brasil Kirin by Bavaria, a company also owned by Heineken.

( inside.beer, 24.1.2020 ) Mauricio Giamellaro, president of the Heineken Group in Brazil, commented: "I am very pleased to redesign our distribution partnership with the Coca-Cola System in Brazil. | not-forward | www.inside.beer | https://www.inside.beer/news/detail/brazil-heineken-and-coca-cola-femsa-settle-legal-dispute |

The MLI introduces minimum standards to improve the effectiveness of the mutual agreement procedure (MAP). Covered bilateral tax agreements between two signatories to the MLI will automatically be amended to allow a taxpayer to present a case to the competent authority of either contracting state within three years from the first notification of the action resulting in taxation which was imposed in contravention of the provisions of the covered tax agreement, if they did not already contain such provisions on dispute resolution. The MAP requires parties to endeavour to resolve the dispute, but it does not provide any means of ensuring that a resolution will be reached. This is a perceived shortfall of the MAP which is addressed by Part VI of the MLI, which allows governments to commit to mandatory binding arbitration. If countries have opted for mandatory binding arbitration, unresolved MAP cases are submitted to an independent arbitrator for resolution. The arbitrator's decision is binding. | not-forward | www.mondaq.com | https://www.mondaq.com/cyprus/tax-treaties/641272/the-multilateral-convention-to-implement-tax-treaty-related-measures-to-prevent-base-erosion-and-profit-shifting-and-its-application-in-cyprus |

China's Xiaomi said on Thursday it had imposed a 1 million yuan ($149,000) penalty on a supplier after it leaked early design drafts of an upcoming car model.

Xiaomi did not disclose the name of the company and we could not identify it. As punishment, the smartphone-turned-car maker said it would impose "economic compensation" of 1 million yuan ($148,763) on the supplier. The spokesperson added it had instructed the supplier to strengthen its information security management, and develop plans to upgrade its confidentiality measures.

Speaking with The Register, Merriman acknowledged that MongoDB isn't the only NoSQL that uses a document-oriented model. CouchDB is the other obvious example. And he made it clear that MongoDB and other NoSQL database can't completely replace relational databases. They're not suited to complex transactions, and ad hoc queries aren't as easy. But MongoDB can scale, he says, and it can still handle ad hoc queries, and it offers strong consistency. | not-forward | www.theregister.com | https://www.theregister.com/2011/05/25/the_once_and_future_mongodb/?page=2 |

Other regulators of the crypto asset industry also had strong responses to the SEC bringing an enforcement action under these circumstances. In a public statement, Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) Commissioner Caroline D. Pham expressed concern with the SEC's approach, characterizing it as "a striking example of 'regulation by enforcement'" and claiming that the "SEC's allegations could have broad implications beyond this single case, underscoring how critical and urgent it is that regulators work together." [7] Similar to Coinbase, Commissioner Pham advocated for rulemaking initiatives, which would benefit from a public notice-and-comment process, rather than enforcement. WHAT'S NEXT? The enforcement action brought by the SEC in SEC v. Wahi marks a novel and perhaps monumental public moment in the debate over crypto assets and their potential categorization as securities. | not-forward | www.mwe.com | https://www.mwe.com/insights/inside-out-is-a-recent-crypto-asset-insider-trading-case-a-prelude-to-more-sec-enforcement-actions |

The IDR process involves a "baseball-style" arbitration process where both sides submit an offer to resolve the dispute. The certified IDR entity must choose the offer closest to the plan's median contracted rate (referred to as the "qualifying payment amount" or "QPA") unless one party meets the burden with "credible evidence" that the QPA is materially different than the appropriate out-of-network rate. In determining which offer to select, the certified IDR entity must consider: In determining which offer to select, the certified IDR entity must not consider: In August 2021 HHS announced that it will defer enforcement of the requirement that providers and facilities provide good faith estimate information to individuals enrolled in a health plan for scheduled items or services who intend to seek reimbursement for such service plan until HHS promulgates regulatory guidance in rulemaking specific to the provision of good faith estimates to such individuals. | not-forward | www.jdsupra.com | https://www.jdsupra.com/legalnews/five-things-providers-need-to-know-4447307 |
