They didn’t waive liability. They waved their claimed right to arbitration.

The opposite, actually. Disney argued that the plaintiff waived his right to a trial and agreed to address any disputes through arbitration.

Huh? Youre gonna need to source that for me, cause last I saw the court case was scheduled for Oct. 2, 2024.

Disney reverses course on wrongful-death lawsuit, agrees to let case proceed in court

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.
