Halliburton Sex Assault Case Goes To Arbitration
February 6, 2008
HOUSTON -- Demonstrating the strength of contract arbitration clauses, federal District Judge Gray Miller threw out a lawsuit against Halliburton filed by a former employee alleging she was sexually assaulted by her co-workers, sending it to arbitration according to the terms of her employment contract.
Referring to recent decisions by the Supreme Court and the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals, Judge Miller wrote in his order that "whether it is wise to send this type of claim to arbitration is not a question for this court to decide." |
