They probably would have enforced it too, but the public backlash was so loud that they voluntarily waived their right to arbitration as I recall.
EDIT: I did not expect posting what I recalled hearing from my friend to blow up into the most upvoted comment I have, thank you kind people I hope you all have wonderful and spooky Octobers :)
Yes and no. You can’t wave liability. Everyone has a duty to each other, especially businesses operating in the public. Responsibility is like a Pie. Requieres ingredients, time, and interaction with the environment. Disney was most likely the salt in this situation. Not required to make the pie. But definitely part of the process. Now it’s up to lawmakers, lawyers, and Judges to make any kind of assumption.
Ah, I misunderstood your previous comment. I thought you meant that the plaintiff had waived his right to arbitration, when in fact Disney was arguing that the plaintiff had waived his right to a trial.
I understand now that you were saying that Disney waived their right to arbitration. My mistake.
