Supreme Court of the United States

Compucredit Corp. v. Greenwood — Sotomayor, J., Concurring

January 10, 2012132 S. Ct. 665

Summary

Justice Sotomayor, joined by Justice Kagan, concurred in the judgment. She agreed that Congress did not evince clear intent to disallow arbitration for Credit Repair Organizations Act claims, but she found this interpretation was no more compelling than the majority's view of statutory language. The concurrence notes the dissent argued that the Act’s 'right to sue' provisions should prevent forced arbitration. This writing remains non-binding commentary alongside the court's controlling decision.
