Executive Summary

The court denied the plaintiff's motion for a preliminary injunction to halt arbitration, denied her motion to vacate an interim arbitral award, and granted Meta's motion to compel arbitration, finding she waived her right to challenge arbitrability and her election under the Ending Forced Arbitration of Sexual Assault and Sexual Harassment Act (EFAA) by actively participating in arbitration for over 15 months. The case is stayed pending arbitration, which removes a legal distraction for Meta but does not involve any financial exposure or operational impact.
