handle is hein.blasports/ansrvds0032 and id is 1 raw text is: SURVEY 2022 ANNUAL SURVEY: RECENT DEVELOPMENTS IN SPORTS LAW INTRODUCTION This Survey highlights sports-related cases decided by courts between January 1, 2022, and December 31, 2022. While every sports-related case may not be included in this Survey, it briefly summarizes a wide range of cases that impacted the sports industry in 2022. The Survey intends to provide the reader insight into the important legal issues affecting the sports industry and to highlight the most recent developments in sports law. To better assist the reader, this Survey is arranged alphabetically by the substantive area of law of each case. ALTERNATIVE DISPUTE RESOLUTION Alternative dispute resolution involves an alternate form of adjudicating cases. Parties may choose to settle a dispute through arbitration instead of through the court system. These cases arose over contract disputes, in which the contracts involved an arbitration clause. If a party brings a dispute to court when the contract contains an arbitration clause, the opposing party may file a motion to compel arbitration. Other arbitration disputes arise over unfair arbitration decisions. B.D. v. Blizzard Ent., Inc.1 Plaintiff were a father and son who made in-game video game purchases and filed suit against Defendant claiming the randomized value of the in-game purchases violated unfair competition law. Defendant filed a motion to compel arbitration based off a licensing agreement, which was denied by the district 1. 292 Cal. Rptr. 3d 47 (Cal. Ct. App. 2022).
