Chavarria v. Ralphs Grocer Co.

ORDER DENYING DEFENDANT’S MOTION TO COMPEL ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS; AND TO DISMISS OR STAY ACTION

DEAN D. PREGERSON, District Judge.

In March 2011, Zenia Chavarria (“Plaintiff’) brought suit individually and on behalf of others similarly situated against her employer, Ralphs Grocery Company (“Ralphs”). Plaintiff alleges various wage and hour violations of California law and seeks compensation for unpaid wages. (Compl. ¶¶ 30-88.) Ralphs now brings a Motion to Compel Arbitration on an Individual Basis and to Dismiss or Stay Action under the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”). (Dkt. No. 6.)
