SCOTUSBlog: Justices Seem to Favor Forum Selection Clauses in Oral Argument
SCOTUSBlog has an interesting analysis on an oral argument this week in the U.S. Supreme Court on forum selection clauses. The blog predicts that the Fifth Circuit will be reversed in the first forum selection clause case to get to the justices in a quarter-century. The justices also seemed to favor an argument from an amici brief that a "forum-selection clause gives [defendant] Atlantic Marine a complete defense to litigation in any excluded court," SCOTUSBlog reported.
