ARBITRATION OF BUSINESS DISPUTES This research

This is an excerpt from the paper...

This research paper discusses the use in the United States of arbitration to resolve business disputes involving large corporations, including disputes between investors and retail securities brokerage firms, and disputes to which smaller businesses are parties.

Because of the congestion in the civil courts and for other reasons, arbitration in a number of forms is very much in vogue in a variety of contexts.

Heinemann (1986) said with some logic that "there is no justification for the notion that once a court has recognized an implied right of action under the securities laws, that right should be entitled to less protection than an express [statutory] cause of action" (p. 568). In 1987, the Court decided by a 5-4 vote in Shearson/ American Express, Inc. v. McMahon, 788 F.2d 94 (2d Cir. 1986), aff'd in part, rev'd in part, 107 S. Ct. 2332 (1987), that securities fraud claims under sec. 10(b) of the '34 Act and Rule 10b-5 thereunder as well as RICO claims were arbitrable.
