SAN FRANCISCO (Legal Newsline) – An appeals court has ruled Sirius XM Radio Inc. failed to prove the existence of an arbitration agreement in a class action lawsuit against it for allegedly violating the Telephone Consumer Protection Act.

The three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit reversed the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of California’s order that dismissed the class action under the TCPA and granted Sirius XM’s motion to compel arbitration pursuant to the Federal Arbitration Act.
