P0360 REVIEW DENIED An arbitration clause contained in an employment agreement was unenforceable because it lacked mutuality in that the employee was required to arbitrate all his claims but the employer was not, and because it required arbitration under rules of the American Arbitration Association, which would require the employee to pay expenses that would not be required in litigation and which at the time did not permit discovery, all of which made the agreement substantively unconscionable; it was procedurally unconscionable because it defies credulity to suggest that the employee had any input in so one-sided an agreement.CitationO'HARE v MUNICIPAL RESOURCE CONSULTANTS (One Sided Arbitration Agreement) 107 CA4 267 [See: CCP 1281.2; Armendariz v Foundation Health 24 C4 83, T/AT 9/00; Little v Auto Stiegler 29 C4 1064, P/AT 5/03]
