Jeffrey Piccolo , the husband of a 42-year-old woman who died last year , filed a wrongful death lawsuit against Disney .

Disney initially argued the case should be settled in arbitration because the widower had once signed up for a Disney Plus trial.

The case gained widespread media attention after Piccolo 's legal team challenged Disney ’s motion to dismiss the case, arguing that a forced arbitration agreement Piccolo signed was invisible.
