1Opinion of the Court
SAMUEL P. KING, Senior District Judge.
Plaintiff Jacqueline Davis (Davis) appeals the district court’s order dismissing her action and compelling arbitration under 9 U.S.C. § 4 based upon an arbitration agreement with her former employer, Defendant O’Melveny & Myers (O’Melveny). On appeal, Davis challenges the enforceability of the arbitration agreement, contending that it is unconscionable under California law. The merits of the underlying claims in her complaint are not at issue here. Because the arbitration agreement is unconscionable under California law, we reverse and remand.
