Jules v. Andre Balazs Properties
Sonia Sotomayor
Yes; Article III jurisdiction persists over §9 and §10 motions in a stayed federal-question case.
Whether Article III permits a federal court to exercise jurisdiction over motions to confirm or vacate an arbitral award under FAA §§9 and §10 after issuing a §3 stay in a prior federal-question case, when the motions lack an independent statutory basis for jurisdiction.
Constitutional concerns with the original
- Relies on post-1900 precedents like Badgerow (2022), Vaden (2009), and Spizzirri (2024) rather than Article III text and ratification-era views of federal judicial power over pending cases.
- Assesses jurisdiction through FAA structure without grounding in constitutional case-or-controversy requirement, risking extension beyond original limits on federal courts.
Solution text
Operative provisions
Bipartisan rationale
Textualism restores original federal court role in resolving disputes under U.S. laws—honoring Democratic traditions of federal protections for workers' claims (Fifth Amendment due process in Jules's discrimination suit) and Republican originalist limits on jurisdiction expansion, avoiding judge-made doctrines that complicate arbitration enforcement.
