An employer sued one of its former employees for bringing two employment related lawsuits instead of resolving the disputes in arbitration. If suing someone for suing you sounds like a SLAPP, that’s because it is. And since the employer can’t even prove up the existence of an arb agreement, it also can’t prevail.
(Plaintiff could have also pointed out—per last-years Sargon decision—that damages are not a remedy for breach of a contract to arbitrate. Just specific performance.)
Affirmed.
