Plaintiff, ORDER v.

Lyft, Inc.,

Defendant.

When arbitration has been compelled and a case is stayed, “all further relief that [plaintiff] seeks for this case (except an ultimate motion to lift the stay to confirm or vacate the arbitration award and related post-arbitration motions) must be presented to the arbitrator and not to this court.” Miller v.
