Sixth Circuit: Incorporation of AAA's Rules Is Clear Evidence Parties Agreed to Arbitrate Whether a Dispute is Arbitrable

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit recently held in Blanton v. Domino’s Pizza Franchising, No. 19-2388 that an arbitration agreement that incorporates the American Arbitration Association’s National Rules of Resolution of Employment Disputes gives “clear and unmistakable” evidence that the parties agreed to arbitrate the question of whether the dispute at issue is itself arbitrable.
