A district court in the Seventh Circuit recently granted a motion to compel arbitration and stay proceedings in a putative class action involving Hyundai’s Blue Link crash assistance.

On Jan. 4, the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court issued a ruling in
Kauders v. Uber Technologies Inc. that has important implications for the enforceability of online and/or app contracts, and the arbitration agreements included in them.[1]
In short, the court concluded that Uber s terms and conditions did not constitute a contract with the plaintiffs, because the app s registration process did not provide users with reasonable notice of the terms and conditions, and did not obtain a clear manifestation of assent to the terms.
In doing so, the court analyzed the features of the Uber app that undercut contract formation, and commented on features that might have worked better. This ruling seems likely to become a notable addition to the burgeoning body of case law addressing how contracts can be formed over the internet.
