Facts: Sharise Petty and David Stasch filed a proposed class action against Niantic Inc. and Warner Bros entities over "loot boxes" in video games, alleging illegal gaming and other wrongs. The defendants sought to stay the proceedings in favor of arbitration.
Issues: The appellants argued the arbitration agreement was unconscionable and against public policy. They sought to overturn a partial stay of proceedings granted due to this agreement.
Ruling: The appeal was dismissed. The court found no palpable and overriding error in the original judge's conclusion that the arbitration agreement was neither unconscionable nor against public policy.
Amount Awarded: Not applicable, as the appeal was dismissed and the case focused on the validity of an arbitration agreement rather than damages.
