ORDER AND JUDGMENT * _________________________________
Before MATHESON, EBEL, and EID, Circuit Judges. _________________________________
A Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) arbitration panel awarded
Shawn Waked and Theresa Stone $2.9 million against Kathleen Kerr, Jane Terry, and
Timothy Rivera. Mr. Waked and Ms. Stone moved to confirm the award in the
United States District Court for the District of New Mexico. Ms. Kerr, Ms. Terry, and
Mr. Rivera filed a cross motion to vacate. The district court confirmed the award against
This order and judgment is not binding precedent, except under the doctrines of *
law of the case, res judicata, and collateral estoppel. It may be cited, however, for its persuasive value consistent with Fed. R. App. P. 32.1 and 10th Cir. R. 32.1. Appellate Case: 24-2064 Document: 109-1 Date Filed: 12/17/2025 Page: 2
Ms. Terry. But it vacated the award as to Ms. Kerr, 1 which Mr. Waked and Ms. Stone
appeal. 2 Exercising jurisdiction under 9 U.S.C. § 16(a)(1), we reverse.
I. BACKGROUND
A. Factual Background 3
Ms. Terry owned Terry Financial Practice (“Terry Financial”), a financial advisory
firm, which included Jane Terry & Associates, Summit Investment Group, and Branch
6A1 of Raymond James Financial Services. Waked v. Kerr, No. CIV 22-0596, 2024 WL
1539788, at *1 (D.N.M. Apr. 9, 2024). Ms. Kerr and Mr. Rivera were longtime Terry
Financial employees. Id.
In March 2019, Mr. Waked and Ms. Stone purchased Terry Financial for $1.56
million and formed Maestro Global LLC (“Maestro”) to operate the firm. Id. at *2.
Terry Financial’s value stemmed from its clients’ goodwill. Id. “Accordingly, it was
important to Waked and Stone that the clients maintain their goodwill for the firm once it
was placed in Waked and Stone’s management.” Id. The purchase agreement
provided that Terry, Kerr, and Rivera would do nothing to interfere with the ongoing viability of the business in Waked and Stone’s ownership: thus, Terry agree[d] to recommend [Waked] to her customers and to do nothing to divert them to
1 Mr. Waked and Ms. Stone settled their claims against Mr. Rivera. 2 Ms. Terry filed a cross-appeal challenging the district court’s order confirming the award against her, Waked, et al. v. Kerr, et al., No. 23-2036, and the appeals were consolidated, Waked, et al. v. Kerr, et al., No. 24-2064. She later stipulated to dismissal, and her appeal ended on January 15, 2025. No. 23-2036, Doc. No. 11150917. 3 We take these background facts from the district court’s opinion and the appellate record.
2 Appellate Case: 24-2064 Document: 109-1 Date Filed: 12/17/2025 Page: 3
competing firms and, likewise, Kerr and Rivera agree[d] to, inter alia, refrain from diverting the firm’s customers to any competing firm.
Id. (alterations in original) (citations and quotations omitted).
Ms. Kerr and Mr. Rivera also agreed to work at Maestro. Id. Their employment
contracts with Maestro (“Employment Contracts”) contained an agreement to arbitrate all
claims relating to their employment before “one arbitrator,” “in accordance with New
Mexico Uniform Arbitration Act,” and “in Santa Fe, New Mexico.” App., Vol. I at 179-
95. 4
Soon after purchasing the firm, Mr. Waked and Ms. Stone learned that (1) Terry
Financial “was not as strong as Terry represented,” (2) Ms. Kerr and Mr. Rivera had
disclosed Maestro’s “confidential and proprietary client and business information” to
their own newly incorporated financial services company, Kerr Rivera, Inc., and
(3) “Kerr, Rivera, and Terry [were] impugning Waked’s and Stone’s reputations in an
effort to divert customers from Maestro Global to the new firm that Kerr and Rivera
founded.” Waked, 2024 WL 1539788, at *3. As a result, Terry Financial’s value
“decline[d] dramatically.” Id.
4 Ms. Kerr and Mr. Rivera also signed Financial Advisor agreements (“FA Agreements”) with Raymond James, which provided that “Kerr and Rivera would serve as Registered Representatives to conduct securities activities on behalf [of] Raymond James and would be retained as employees by Waked and Stone as owners of the Santa Fe Raymond James branch office.” Waked, 2024 WL 1539788, at *2. The FA Agreements prohibited Ms. Kerr and Mr. Rivera from soliciting Raymond James’s clients. App., Vol. II at 320.
3 Appellate Case: 24-2064 Document: 109-1 Date Filed: 12/17/2025 Page: 4
In January 2021, Mr. Waked, Ms. Stone, and Maestro commenced FINRA
arbitration proceedings against Ms. Kerr, Ms. Terry, and Mr. Rivera. Id.
B. FINRA Arbitration Rules and Procedures
FINRA “is an independent, self-regulatory organization . . . established pursuant
to Section 15A of the Securities Exchange Act, which ‘created a system of supervised
self-regulation in the securities industry.’” Reading Health Sys. v. Bear Stearns & Co.,
900 F.3d 87, 92 (3d Cir. 2018) (quoting Credit Suisse First Boston Corp. v. Grunwald,
400 F.3d 1119, 1128 (9th Cir. 2005)). FINRA promulgates rules governing the
brokerage industry, subject to the Securities and Exchange Commission’s approval. Id.
at 93. FINRA members must comply with FINRA rules, including the arbitration
provisions. Id.; see also FINRA Rule 140 (Applicability); FINRA Bylaws, art IV, § 1
(Membership).
At all relevant times, Mr. Waked, Ms. Stone, Ms. Kerr, Ms. Terry, and Mr. Rivera
were FINRA members subject to FINRA’s rules. Waked, 2024 WL 1539788, at *19.
Maestro was not a FINRA member. Id.
Rule 13200 in FINRA’s Code of Arbitration Procedure for Industry Disputes
(“FINRA’s Code”) requires FINRA members to arbitrate their disputes in a FINRA
forum “if the dispute arises out of the business activities of a member or an associated
person and is between or among . . . Members and Associated Persons.” FINRA Code
Arb. P. Indus. Disps. R. 13200(a) (available at https://www.finra.org/rules-
guidance/rulebooks/finrrules/13200 [https://perma.cc/8A7Q-QZ2T]).
4 Appellate Case: 24-2064 Document: 109-1 Date Filed: 12/17/2025 Page: 5
A claimant starts the FINRA arbitration process by filing a statement of claim and
a submission agreement, which identifies the parties and confirms FINRA will administer
the arbitration. FINRA notifies respondents by Claim Notification Letter. Each
respondent must complete and return a submission agreement. 5 The respondent has 45
days to submit an answer, identifying any counterclaims or defenses. The parties then
select the arbitrators for their panel, attend an initial pre-hearing conference, and
exchange discovery. After a hearing, the arbitration panel issues its decision, called the
arbitration award.
C. FINRA Arbitration Proceedings
Statement of Claims
In January 2021, Mr. Waked, Ms. Stone, and Maestro filed a joint statement of
claims against Ms. Kerr, Ms. Terry, and Mr. Rivera with FINRA. Waked, 2024 WL
1539788, at *3. They alleged various tort and contract claims including fraud, negligent
misrepresentation, breach of contract, breach of the covenant of good faith and fair
dealing, breach of the duty of loyalty, solicitation of clients in violation of contractual
duties, misappropriation of trade secrets, interference with contractual relationships, and
civil conspiracy. Id. Maestro asserted some of these claims on its own. See App., Vol. I
5 FINRA’s standard submission agreement reads: “The undersigned parties hereby submit the present matter in controversy, as set forth in the attached statement of claim, answer, and all related crossclaims . . . to arbitration in accordance with FINRA By-laws, Rules, and Code of Arbitration Procedure.” App. Vol., I at 92.
5 Appellate Case: 24-2064 Document: 109-1 Date Filed: 12/17/2025 Page: 6
at 80-89. Mr. Waked and Ms. Stone likewise asserted claims independently of Maestro.
Id. 6
Submission Agreements
On March 9, 2021, Ms. Kerr, Ms. Terry, and Mr. Rivera filed modified submission
agreements. Waked, 2024 WL 1539788, at *4. They added the following language to the
standard agreement: “excluded from this agreement . . . is commitment to arbitrate the
claim of Claimant Maestro Global LLC.” App., Vol. I at 137. They did not exclude
Mr. Waked and Ms. Stone’s claims. Id.
FINRA arbitration staff refused to accept the altered submission agreements.
Waked, 2024 WL 1539788, at *4. Ms. Kerr, Ms. Terry, and Mr. Rivera responded that
FINRA lacked jurisdiction over Maestro’s claims and refused “to submit a Submission
Agreement, effectively waiving their rights and submitting [the claims] to arbitration.”
App., Vol. I, at 149. They requested a pre-hearing conference to address their objections.
Waked, 2024 WL 1539788, at *41. During this exchange, they did not object to
arbitrating Mr. Waked and Ms. Stone’s claims. Id.
Answer and Counterclaims
In their answer, Ms. Kerr, Ms. Terry, and Mr. Rivera again “refuse[d] to arbitrate
Maestro’s claims against them,” claiming Maestro was not “a proper party to [the] action
See, e.g., App., Vol. I at 80 (Mr. Waked and Ms. Stone alleging they would not 6
have signed the purchase agreement but for Ms. Kerr’s, Ms. Terry’s, and Mr. Rivera’s fraudulent inducement).
6 Appellate Case: 24-2064 Document: 109-1 Date Filed: 12/17/2025 Page: 7
because it [was] not a FINRA member firm.” Id. at *4 (quotations omitted). But they did
not object to arbitrating Mr. Waked and Ms. Stone’s claims. Id. at *4, *41.
They also asserted counterclaims against Mr. Waked and Ms. Stone. Id. at *9.
Ms. Kerr specifically sought damages for constructive discharge, breach of contract,
negligent misrepresentation, hostile work environment, and sexual harassment. App.,
Vol. I at 33. Ms. Kerr, Ms. Terry, and Mr. Rivera did not assert counterclaims against
Maestro because they believed FINRA lacked jurisdiction over Maestro. 7
Pre-hearing Proceedings
On June 7, 2021, the FINRA panel held a pre-hearing conference to address
Ms. Kerr’s, Ms. Terry’s, and Mr. Rivera’s modified submission agreements and their
objections to arbitrating with Maestro. Waked, 2024 WL 1539788, at *4, *41. All three
argued that, because Maestro was not a FINRA Member Firm, “there is no agreement . . .
to arbitrate before FINRA,” that Maestro has “no standing to be a party in [the] action,”
and “FINRA has no jurisdiction over Maestro.” App. Vol. I at 156-65. Ms. Kerr and
Mr. Rivera further argued that their Employment Contracts “require[d] Maestro to pursue
any claims against [them] in a forum other than FINRA.” Id. at 162; see also Waked,
2024 WL 1539788, at *5. But again, they did not object to arbitrating Mr. Waked and
Ms. Stone’s claims. The panel overruled the objections and ordered Ms. Kerr, Ms. Terry,
7 In their brief for the pre-hearing conference, Ms. Kerr and the others explained, “[T]his is why Respondents did not assert a Counterclaim against Maestro—only against . . . Waked and Stone.” App., Vol. I at 160 n.4. 7 Appellate Case: 24-2064 Document: 109-1 Date Filed: 12/17/2025 Page: 8
and Mr. Rivera to submit unmodified submission agreements, which they did. Waked,
2024 WL 1539788, at *4-*5.
The parties proceeded to discovery. Ms. Kerr, Ms. Terry, and Mr. Rivera
requested sanctions against Mr. Waked and Ms. Stone for “abuse of the discovery
process.” App., Vol. I at 33. The panel granted the motion and ordered Mr. Waked and
Ms. Stone to pay $8,000. Id. Ms. Kerr, Ms. Terry, and Mr. Rivera filed a second motion
for sanctions, but, after an evidentiary hearing, the panel denied the motion. Id.
Hearing
“During the arbitration hearing, [Terry,] Kerr and Rivera objected on multiple
occasions to having to arbitrate with Maestro Global, because they asserted that
Maestro Global is not subject to FINRA.” Waked, 2024 WL 1539788, at *5. 8 They
moved to dismiss Maestro’s claim at the outset and renewed their motion to dismiss after
the claimants’ case in chief. Id. at *6-8. When the FINRA panel asked if a renewed
“motion to dismiss will relate to Maestro Global,” App., Vol. I at 207, Ms. Kerr,
Ms. Terry, and Mr. Rivera’s counsel responded, “Just Maestro Global.” Id. The panel
denied the motions to dismiss. Waked, 2024 WL 1539788, at *6-8. At no point during
8 See App., Vol. I at 212-13 (Defense counsel stating “you were going to hear argument from [defendants] . . . on the authority of this panel, the jurisdiction of this panel to arbitrate the (indiscernible) claims brought by Maestro Global LLC,” and it “is not appropriate [for the panel] to be hearing or deciding any claims as against Maestro Global.”); App., Vol. II at 225 (Defense counsel stating during arbitration closing argument that “Maestro is not entitled to anything in damages against Mr. Rivera and Ms. Kerr” because its presence in the case was “wrongful and erroneous”).
8 Appellate Case: 24-2064 Document: 109-1 Date Filed: 12/17/2025 Page: 9
the arbitration hearing did Ms. Kerr, Ms. Terry, or Mr. Rivera object to arbitrating
Mr. Waked and Ms. Stone’s claims.
Award
The FINRA panel found “Kerr, Rivera, and Terry are jointly and severally liable
to Waked and Stone for $2,872,473.00 in compensatory damages,” and “jointly and
severally liable for interest on the $2,872,473.00 damages.” Id. at *9. The panel denied
all of Ms. Kerr, Ms. Terry, and Mr. Rivera’s counterclaims and did not award Maestro
damages. Id. It did not identify which claims were the basis for the award. Id.
D. District Court Proceedings
Motions to Confirm and Vacate
Mr. Waked and Ms. Stone moved to confirm the arbitration award in district court.
Id. at *10. Ms. Kerr, Ms. Terry, and Mr. Rivera cross-moved to vacate, arguing that the
FINRA panel exceeded its authority and disregarded the law when it awarded damages to
Mr. Waked and Ms. Stone individually. Id. Mr. Kerr and Mr. Rivera initially contended
that only Maestro asserted claims against them, and that “[b]y bestowing the Award on
. . . Waked and Stone, the panel made ‘an end run around the reality that Maestro was
never a proper party’ to the arbitration.” Id. (quoting App., Vol. I at 116). In response
Mr. Waked and Ms. Stone pointed to the multiple tort claims they asserted on their own
behalf independently of Maestro. Id. at *12.
Later, Ms. Kerr and Mr. Rivera argued that Mr. Waked and Ms. Stone’s individual
claims were all based on their Employment Contracts with Maestro, which contained
distinct arbitration provisions. Id. at *14, *17-18. They asserted that the arbitration
9 Appellate Case: 24-2064 Document: 109-1 Date Filed: 12/17/2025 Page: 10
clauses in their Employment Contracts superseded and displaced any FINRA arbitration
obligations. Id. at *14.
Mr. Waked and Ms. Stone said that “[w]hatever theoretical merit there might have
been to such an argument, if timely made, the argument is now irrelevant because Kerr
and Rivera . . . never objected to arbitrating Waked and Stone’s claims.” App., Vol. II
at 360.
District Court Order
In a 167-page order, the district court confirmed the award against Ms. Terry and
vacated the award against Ms. Kerr. The district court determined:
1. Ms. Kerr’s challenge to the FINRA panel’s jurisdiction to arbitrate Maestro’s claims raised arbitrability issues that the parties did not delegate to the FINRA arbitrators;
2. Ms. Kerr preserved her objection to the FINRA panel’s jurisdiction over Maestro’s claims;
3. Mr. Waked and Ms. Stone’s claims against Ms. Kerr arose out of her Employment Contract with Maestro;
4. The non-FINRA arbitration provision in Ms. Kerr’s Employment Contract bound Mr. Waked and Ms. Stone;
5. The non-FINRA arbitration provision in Ms. Kerr’s Employment Contract superseded and displaced the parties’ FINRA arbitration obligations.
The district court concluded that the FINRA panel exceeded its authority by
requiring Ms. Kerr to arbitrate claims over which it lacked jurisdiction. Waked, 2024 WL
1539788, at *54. The court did not address Mr. Waked and Ms. Stone’s argument that
Ms. Kerr never objected to arbitrating their claims.
Mr. Waked and Ms. Stone timely appealed.
10 Appellate Case: 24-2064 Document: 109-1 Date Filed: 12/17/2025 Page: 11
II. DISCUSSION
On appeal, Mr. Waked and Ms. Stone argue that “Kerr waived any objection to
arbitrating with Waked and Stone when she expressly, repeatedly, and consistently
agreed to submit to arbitrating with them.” Aplt. Br. at 25. We agree.
A. Standard of Review
On an appeal of a district court’s order confirming or vacating an arbitration
award, we review factual findings for clear error and legal conclusions de novo.
First Options of Chi., Inc. v. Kaplan, 514 U.S. 938, 947-49 (1995). Our review here
begins and ends with waiver.
B. Legal Background
We apply traditional rules of waiver and estoppel to arbitration proceedings.
Lewis v. Circuit City Stores, Inc., 500 F.3d 1140, 1149 (10th Cir. 2007). “The Supreme
Court has observed that to the extent parties ‘forcefully object[] to the arbitrator’s
deciding their dispute,’ they preserve their objection even if they follow through with
arbitration.” Id. at 1148 (quoting First Options, 514 U.S. at 946) (alterations in original).
“On the other hand, many courts have held that, absent an explicit statement objecting to
the arbitrability of the dispute, a party cannot ‘await the outcome and then later argue that
the arbitrator lacked authority to decide the matter.’” Id. at 1149 (quoting AGCO Corp.
v. Anglin, 216 F.3d 589, 593 (7th Cir. 2000)). “It would be unreasonable and unjust to
allow [a party] to challenge the legitimacy of the arbitration process, in which he had
voluntarily participated over a period of several months.” Id. (quoting Fortune, Alsweet
& Eldridge, Inc. v. Daniel, 724 F.2d 1355, 1357 (9th Cir. 1983)) (alterations in original).
11 Appellate Case: 24-2064 Document: 109-1 Date Filed: 12/17/2025 Page: 12
Thus, a party may waive its arguments against arbitrating claims by “fully participat[ing]
in arbitration without any relevant objection.” Id.
In Lewis v. Circuit City Stores, Inc., after an arbitration panel denied his claims on
the merits, Mr. Lewis attempted to reassert the same claims in district court, arguing his
arbitration agreement was unenforceable. Id. at 1143-45. We held Mr. Lewis waived
this argument by failing to raise it “during arbitration.” Id. at 1150. The record revealed
“only a general complaint about having to arbitrate and [was] devoid of an objection to
any legal aspect of the arbitration agreement or to the enforceability of the agreement
generally.” Id. “Because Lewis never adequately objected in arbitration to the
arbitrability of his claims . . . he waived his opportunity to do so and [was] estopped from
raising such issues [on appeal.]” Id. 9
C. Analysis
Ms. Kerr waived any objections in district court and on appeal against arbitrating
Mr. Waked and Ms. Stone’s claims because she failed to object in the FINRA arbitration.
9 See also Hicks v. Bank of Am., N.A., 218 F. App’x 739, 746 (10th Cir. 2007) (unpublished) (holding that a party waived their objection to arbitrating by “vigorously participating in the arbitration,” asserting counterclaims, and arguing, in response to a motion to stay, that the issue was arbitrable); Integrated Assocs. of Denv., Inc. v. Pope, No. 21-1019, 2022 WL 2388420, at *7 (10th Cir. July 1, 2022) (unpublished) (“We conclude [Appellant] waived their arbitrability argument by not raising it before the arbitrator . . . .”). We cite these unpublished opinions for their persuasive value under Fed. R. App. P. 32.1; 10th Cir. R. 32.1.
12 Appellate Case: 24-2064 Document: 109-1 Date Filed: 12/17/2025 Page: 13
Before the FINRA panel, Ms. Kerr repeatedly objected to arbitrating Maestro’s
claims, but not Mr. Waked and Ms. Stone’s claims. She excluded Maestro’s claim from
her original submission agreement, but not Mr. Waked and Ms. Stone’s claims. She
argued that the FINRA panel lacked jurisdiction over Maestro’s claims, but did not
mention Mr. Waked and Ms. Stone’s claims.
In her pre-hearing conference briefing, Ms. Kerr again objected to the FINRA
panel’s jurisdiction over Maestro’s claims. She argued that because Maestro was not a
FINRA member “there is no agreement with [Defendants] to arbitrate before FINRA,”
and Maestro thus had “no standing” to bring claims in a FINRA forum. App. Vol. I at
156-65. As the district court acknowledged, “These arguments do not contest the
arbitrability or FINRA jurisdiction as to Waked and Stone’s claims against the
defendants; these arguments only go to Maestro Global’s position in the arbitration and
litigation.” Waked, 2024 WL 1539788, at *5.
Ms. Kerr’s objections during the arbitration hearing were likewise limited to
Maestro’s claim. See supra n.8. Not only did Ms. Kerr fail to object, she “vigorously
participated” in the FINRA arbitration with Mr. Waked and Ms. Stone. See Hicks,
218 F. App’x at 746. She asserted counterclaims against Mr. Waked and Ms. Stone,
seeking over $280,000 in compensatory damages, punitive damages, and attorney fees
and costs. During discovery, Ms. Kerr requested and the panel granted $8,000 in
sanctions, and she later moved for sanctions again. By failing to object in the hearing and
instead “fully participat[ing] in arbitration without any relevant objection,” she waived
her arguments that she has attempted to make in district court and on appeal against
13 Appellate Case: 24-2064 Document: 109-1 Date Filed: 12/17/2025 Page: 14
arbitrating Mr. Waked and Ms. Stone’s claims in the FINRA forum. Lewis, 500 F.3d
at 1149; see Pope, 2022 WL 2388420, at *7.
On appeal, Ms. Kerr fails to identify any place in the record where she made an
“explicit statement objecting to [arbitrating]” Mr. Waked and Ms. Stone’s claims before
the FINRA panel. Lewis, 500 F.3d at 1149 (quoting AGCO, 216 F.3d at 593). Instead,
she argues her modified submission agreement “belies [Mr. Waked and Ms. Stone’s]
position” that she never objected to arbitrating their claims. Aplee. Br. at 34. Ms. Kerr
states, “[in her modified submission agreement] Kerr protested both the arbitration of the
‘claim of Claimant Maestro Global, LLC against [her]’ and further refused to consent ‘to
arbitrate with Maestro Global, LLC.’” Id. (quoting App., Vol. I at 137) (alterations in
original). But Ms. Kerr fails to explain how these objections about Maestro constituted
an objection to arbitrating Mr. Waked and Ms. Stone’s claims. 10
Ms. Kerr spends the rest of her appellate brief arguing that Mr. Waked and
Ms. Stone’s claims arose out of her Employment Contract with Maestro, and that the
Employment Contract arbitration clause supersedes and displaces FINRA’s arbitration
10 To avoid waiver, Ms. Kerr insists that when she objected to arbitrating with Maestro during the FINRA proceedings, she was objecting to participating in the FINRA process generally. See Oral Arg. at 18:47-55. But she did not tell that to the FINRA panel. Instead, as recounted above, she repeatedly objected to arbitration with Maestro. Indeed, she even said that she “did not assert a Counterclaim against Maestro—only against . . . Waked and Stone”—because the panel lacked jurisdiction over Maestro. App., Vol. I at 160 n.4. And when asked if a renewed motion to dismiss the arbitration would relate solely to Maestro’s claims, Ms. Kerr’s counsel responded, “Just Maestro.” App., Vol. I at 207.
14 Appellate Case: 24-2064 Document: 109-1 Date Filed: 12/17/2025 Page: 15
rules. But even assuming these arguments were correct, she failed to raise them during
the FINRA arbitration proceedings.
III. CONCLUSION
We reverse the district court’s judgment regarding Mr. Waked and Ms. Stone’s
award against Ms. Kerr and remand with instructions to grant Mr. Waked and
Ms. Stone’s motion to confirm the award as to Ms. Kerr. 11
