Answer to Question 1

No. The doctrine of stare decisis (from the Latin phrase stare decisis et non quieta movere, which means to adhere to precedents and not unsettle things that are settled) does not bar reexamination of Sinclair. The Court quotes Mr. Justice Frankfurter, tare decisis is a principle of policy and not a mechanical formula of adherence to the latest decision, however recent and questionable, when such adherence involves collision with a prior doctrine more embracing in its scope, intrinsically sounder, and verified by experience.. The Court states that Sinclair is a significant departure from our otherwise consistent emphasis upon the congressional policy to promote the peaceful settlement of labor disputes through arbitration..

Answer to Question 2
