Imagine the dark, depressing dystopia that would envelope our State if this proposed bill regulating arbitration provisions in consumer contracts were by some miracle to pass:
Good god Frank Petosa, or should I say Fallon from that crappy Emilio Estevez film Judgment Night, you are truly dedicated to the destruction of our way of life -- in fact, all we hold dear.Among some of the provisions of the bill, sponsored by Sen. Ted Deutch, a Boca Raton Democrat whose district includes a portion of Broward County, are:
• Any arbitration notice must state the parties are entitled to representation.
• Corporations would have to disclose arbitration expenses, including filing fees, and the cost for arbitrators and hearing rooms.
• Any arbitration organization that administers 10 or more consumer arbitrations a year would have to disclose: the number of times a corporation has been party to an arbitration by the firm; whether the consumer was represented by a lawyer; how the case was resolved; the amount claimed and the amount awarded, and the name of the arbitrator and his fee.
• Arbitration awards can be tossed if the ``award is not supported by substantial evidence.''
''The idea is to ensure the system isn't so heavily weighted against the consumer,'' said Deutch, a lawyer. A similar bill by Jacksonville Republican Charles McBurney, a lawyer, was filed in the House on Thursday.
The legislation doesn't sit well with some businesses and arbitration firms.

I don't get it. How will this bill help me reach my billable hours requirement?
Denis Leary would rip the arbitration clause in half, burn it with a match lit from his nether regions, and swallow the burning ball of words whole.
I'm wondering if it would be preempted by the FAA or violative of commerce clause.
don't see it flying
On your list of places to be, you have Cocaine Princess. This woman is nothing but a disgrace, her pictures are nothing short of pornographic and her blog, she almost seems proud of who she is and what her family does. Personally if I had any type of 'connections' I wouldn't be proud I would be ashamed. She is what is wrong with the world today and people like you who glorify and promote her blog are nothing but shameless individuals!!!!
4:04 -- pass judgment much?
I wasn't passing judgment. I was telling you my opinion. Seriously, what is it about her blog you like? Wait, don't answer that, I already know the answer. It's her pictures right? It has to be. Don't tell me you enjoy reading about her life? Are you trying to get on her good side hoping Valentina's daddy will hire you? It's sickening her entries. Mothers are suppose to nurture and protect their children from the harsh elements in the world. What kind of mother takes their child to see scarface? Or what kind of mother parties at a club with a drug kingpin while her child is at home? The kind of life she grew up in, back then if child care services knew what was going on, I'm sure they would have yanked the daughter out and then charged the mother!
4:04, thanks for reading and sharing your views. I find she adds a slightly different perspective to what we do here, and from comments I have received, many other readers do appreciate her contributions and do in fact read her blog.
