Summary
In Epic v. Lewis, the Supreme Court ruled that employees must individually arbitrate disputes, and collective action waivers in employment agreements are enforceable. The decision was based on the Federal Arbitration Act, which overrides the National Labor Relations Act. The Court found no contradiction between the FAA and the NLRA. Additionally, the driver is generally responsible for car repairs in an accident, real property includes buildings, land, and fixtures, and a fixture is not defined by its presence at the time of sale. Bailment requires possession transfer, and involuntary bailment occurs with unintentional possession transfer. A bailee owes utmost care when the bailment benefits them solely.Full Conversation

The Epic v. Lewis case had three main points:
*. Employees must settle disputes through individual arbitration, meaning they cannot band together to take legal action.

*. The Court found no contradiction between the FAA and the National Labor Relations Act, ruling that the latter does not displace the former.
