- What it's about
Abraham Bielski sued Coinbase after a scammer stole money from his account, and Coinbase attempted to move the case to arbitration. The Supreme Court ruled that when a party appeals a lower court's refusal to compel arbitration, the lower court must pause all proceedings until the appeal is resolved.
Question presented
Does a non-frivolous appeal of the denial of a motion to compel arbitration oust a district court’s jurisdiction to proceed with litigation pending appeal?
