March 9, 201255 Tex. Sup. Ct. J. 441

The Texas Supreme Court conditionally granted mandamus relief, holding that an at-will employer's threat to terminate does not constitute coercion that invalidates a pre‑suit jury‑waiver agreement, and ordered the trial court to vacate its order and strike the employee's jury demand.
