It is no secret that Hollywood’s A-list actor Charlie Sheen is a fan of the spotlight. He lives much of his life in the public eye, whether through television interviews, twitter posts, or casual comments to the paparazzi, Charlie is no stranger to the spot-light. For years now, we have watched him on the hit television series “Two and a Half Men.”

About a week or so ago, Charlie Sheen filed a lawsuit against Chuck Lorre, the creator of “Two and a Half Men”, and Warner Brothers Studios seeking millions in alleged guaranteed compensation and compensation for the rest of the cast and crew affected by the Defendants’ termination of the show. However, it appears that the spot-light loving actor will not be having his very public day in court.

Chuck Lorre and Warner Brothers are attempting to enforce an arbitration clause in the parties’ agreement which requires the case to be decided in a confidential arbitration with the private dispute resolution company JAMS. Earlier this week, JAMS informed Charlie (and all parties) that it has jurisdiction over his claims against Chuck Lorre and Warner Brothers and will proceed with the arbitration process, although an arbitrator still has not been chosen.

If the case goes to private arbitration, all the facts of the case and the settlement will be confidential and may not be disclosed to the public. In this case, a confidential arbitration is a huge benefit for the Defendants Chuck Lorre and Warner Brothers, but I don’t think Charlie will be out the spot light anytime soon.

For an individual like Charlie Sheen, the statement made by slapping someone with a 100 Million Dollar lawsuit and the following media frenzy is far more valuable than the actual damages received. We can only hope that Charlie’s legal team finds a way to make it all public.
