On June 23, 2023, the U.S. Supreme Court issued a very important decision concerning the procedure to be followed when a federal district court denies a party's request to compel arbitration. See Coinbase v Bielski, No. 22-105, __ U.S. __ (June 23, 2023). Under Section 16(a) of the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U. S. C. §1 et seq.), when a federal district court denies a motion to compel arbitration, the losing party has a statutory right to an interlocutory appeal.
