   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  21-2719
   U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri - St. Louis   
   [PUBLISHED] [Smith, Author, with Wollman and Grasz, Circuit Judges] 
   Civil case - Arbitration. Plaintiffs, independent contractors of Aflac 
   alleged defendant, an Aflac employee, sexually assaulted plaintiff 
   Katherine at a work conference, and they sued him for battery, assault, 
   false imprisonment and loss of consortium; defendant moved to compel 
   arbitration of the claims, arguing he was a third-party beneficiary of the 
   plaintiffs' Arbitration Agreements with Aflac; the district court did not 
   err in rejecting the motion to compel arbitration as the claims did not 
   arise under or fall within the scope of the arbitration agreements. Judge 
   Grasz, dissenting.
