Court to Decide Enforceability of the Waivers Sample Clauses

Court to Decide Enforceability of the Waivers. A court of competent jurisdiction, not an arbitrator, must resolve issues concerning the enforceability or validity of the class action, collective action, or representative action waivers set forth above. If, for any reason, any portion of the class or collective or representative action waiver is held unenforceable or invalid in whole or in part, then a court of competent jurisdiction, not an arbitrator, will decide the claim or portion of the claim as to which the class or collective or representative action waiver was held unenforceable, including deciding whether the party has standing to maintain the claim in court; however, for any portion of the waiver that remains valid, the claim must be arbitrated on an individual basis. Further, all individual Covered Claims, including individual claims under PAGA, will remain subject to arbitration.
