Plaintiff appeals from an order compelling arbitration and dismissing with prejudice his discrimination complaint against his former employer and two of its employees. This appeal presents an issue of first impression in this court: whether the Federal Arbitration Act (FAA), 9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16, pre-empts a 2019 amendment, adding N.J.S.A. 10:5-12.7 (Section 12.7), to New Jersey's Law Against Discrimination (LAD). Section 12.7 prohibits the waiver of procedural and substantive rights under LAD. The court holds that the arbitration agreement is enforceable, and that the FAA pre-empts Section 12.7 of LAD when applied to an arbitration agreement governed by the FAA. The court affirms the portion of the order compelling arbitration, but remands for entry of a new order that stays the litigation pending the arbitration.
