California Court of Appeal

The trial court's order denying defendants' motion to compel arbitration of claims brought against each of them by plaintiff for sexual harassment, employment discrimination, and related causes of action is reversed, where: 1) the agreement to arbitrate is not unconscionable; and 2) to the extent the agreement contains an attorney fee provision that purports to deprive plaintiff of her remedies under FEHA to recover attorney fees, that particular provision is properly severed, and the remainder of the agreement to arbitrate is properly enforced.
