In the case of Spark Event Rentals Ltd. v. Google LLC, dated June 28, 2023, Spark Event Rentals Ltd. had purchased Google ads and alleged a conspiracy between Google and Apple that had resulted in increased ad prices. Google sought to stay the action and enforce the mandatory arbitration agreement in the purchase agreement. Apple, although not a party to the agreement, also sought to stay the action, claiming it would be an abuse of process. The court reviewed the International Commercial Arbitration Act and considered the doctrines of unconscionability and public policy. Ultimately, the court determined that the arbitration agreement was valid and enforceable, resulting in a stay of proceedings against both Google and Apple. No amount of financial award and costs were specified in the case.
