WASHINGTON, Dec 14 (Reuters) - The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday ruled for DirecTV Inc, backing the satellite television provider's efforts to enforce arbitration agreements signed by its customers in California.
The high court, on a 6-3 vote, overturned a state appeals court decision in California that found that consumers were not bound by a provision in DirecTV's customer agreement preventing disputes from being resolved on a class-wide basis.
DirecTV is a subsidiary of AT&T Inc.
