Smigelski v. PennyMac Financial Services, Inc. CA3
Defendants and appellants Private National Mortgage Acceptance Company, LLC, PennyMac Financial Services, Inc., and PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust (collectively, “PennyMac”) appeal from orders denying successive petitions to compel arbitration of a dispute with a former employee, plaintiff and respondent Richard Smigelski. PennyMac advances a number of arguments on appeal. Of greatest significance, PennyMac argues the trial court erred in finding the parties’ arbitration agreement contains unenforceable waivers of the right to bring claims under the Private Attorneys General Act of 2004 (PAGA) (Lab. Code, § 2699 et seq.), and erred in declining to sever the waivers and enforce the remainder of the agreement. We disagree and affirm.
