Goldman Sachs Bank USA, dba Marcus by Goldman Sachs v. Rhea Ann Brown

Goldman Sachs Bank USA has asked the Supreme Court to review whether a bankruptcy court may refuse to enforce a valid arbitration agreement for claims under Section 362(k). The case asks when the Federal Arbitration Act must give way to bankruptcy-law claims seeking money damages.

A petition for certiorari (the Court's decision whether to hear a case) has been filed, and oral argument has not been scheduled. No substantive justice or advocate reactions are available yet.

The answer could affect people bringing Section 362(k) claims and companies that use arbitration agreements. For example, it could determine whether a person seeking money damages must use arbitration instead of pursuing the claim in bankruptcy court.

The Court may next decide whether to grant certiorari. No oral-argument date or decision window is available yet.

The case asks when a bankruptcy court may decline to enforce a valid arbitration agreement for Section 362(k) claims seeking money damages.

People bringing Section 362(k) claims and companies with arbitration agreements could be affected. The case may determine where such claims are resolved.

The Supreme Court will decide whether to grant certiorari, meaning whether to hear the case. No argument date has been set.
