Abstract

With the appointment of Justice Sonia Sotomayor to the Supreme Court, the majority of criticism has focused on the typical, hot button issues, but little comment has addressed her stance on arbitration. This article reviews the cases where she participated in the drafting of the opinion as either an author or panelist. It shows a careful style by Justice Sotomayor and familiarity with the subject matter. Her opinions appear well-researched, studious, and adhering to the tenets familiar to students of international arbitration.

Keywords: arbitration, Sotomayor, supreme court
