Claims of Non-Parties Excluded From Arbitration. The Parties wish to resolve any disputes between them in an individualized, informal, timely, and inexpensive manner and to eliminate, to the maximum extent possible, any resort to litigation in a court of law. Consequently, the Arbitrator shall not consolidate or combine the resolution of any claim or dispute between the Parties pursuant to these arbitration provisions with the resolution of any claim by any other party or parties, including but not limited to any other actual or claimed employee of the Group. Nor shall the Arbitrator have the authority to certify a class under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure Rule 23, analogous state rules, or AAA rules pertaining to class arbitration, and the Arbitrator shall not decide claims on behalf of any other party or parties.
