Rymel v. Save Mart Supermarkets

Plaintiffs Jose Robles, Christopher Rymel, and David Hagins sued defendant Save Mart Supermarkets, Inc., alleging various state law statutory employment claims.  After successfully moving to sever, Save Mart moved to compel arbitration as to each plaintiff.  The motions were heard together, and the trial court denied the motions by substantively identical orders.  Save Mart timely appealed in each case.  The appeals lie.  (See Code Civ. Proc., § 1294, subd. (a).)  We consolidated the appeals for oral argument and decision and shall affirm the orders denying the motions to compel arbitration.
