Description

In this opinion we are called upon to determine whether the trial court erred in holding that in Pennsylvania a claim for equitable relief is by law, outside the terms of an arbitration agreement. The trial court held that this class action suit, calling for equitable as well as legal relief, was outside the terms of the arbitration agreement between the appellant, Shearson Lehman Hutton, Inc. [hereinafter "Shearson"], and the appellees [hereinafter the "Dickler Group"]. We find that the broad agreement [hereinafter "Shearson client agreement"] signed by the parties encompasses all controversies, and that federal and Pennsylvania law allows arbitrators to provide all kinds of relief not prohibited by statute. Furthermore we find that this class action, if properly certified, may continue through arbitration on a class-wide basis. We therefore remand to the trial court for class certification proceedings. After this ruling, the trial court must compel arbitration. The Dickler Group
