OPINION
Plaintiff Kevin Johnson appeals the district court’s order compelling arbitration. We affirm the judgment of the district court.
Johnson filed a potential collective аction in the district court alleging that defendant Long John Silver’s Restaurants, Inc., had violated the Fair Labor Standards Act in its treatment of Johnson and others similarly situated. Long Jоhn Silver’s moved to compel arbitration under a standard employee arbitration agreement. Johnson argued that because Long John Silver’s was unable to produce a signed arbitration agreement — the company allegedly lost Johnson’s file — he could not be bound to arbitrate his claim. Johnson also argued that any arbitration agreement found to exist was unconscionable and that he had not made a voluntary and knowing waiver of the right to a judicial forum. He further argued that сollective actions were outside the scope of'the arbitration agreement, or alternately that arbitration would not permit him to pursue a collective action, and that therefore the arbitral forum was inadequate. Finally, he argued that a number of other clauses of the arbitration agreement were impermissible and should be severed, such as provisions providing for the scoрe of discovery and the payment of costs and fees.
The district court made two alternative findings with respect to the existence of an arbitration agreement, concluding that Johnson had signed an arbitration agreement, or, in the altеrnative, that Johnson was bound by an implied-in-fact arbitration agreement.
Johnson v. Long John Silver’s Rests., Inc.,
After carefully considering the record on appeal, the briefs of the parties, and the applicable law, and having had the benefit of оral argument, we affirm the district court’s conclusion that Johnson is bound by an implied-in-fact arbitration agreement under Missouri law, for the reasons given by the district court.
Id.
at 664-65. Wе do not reach the issue of whether Johnson in fact signed an arbitration agreеment. On the remaining issues, we conclude that the factual determinations of the district court were not clearly erroneous and that the legal determinations were correct. Because the reasoning that supports the judgment has beеn clearly articulated by the district court in a thorough and comprehensive рublished decision, the issuance of a detailed written opinion by us would be unduly duplicative. Accordingly, the judgment of the district court,

v. Long John Silver’s Rests., Inc.,
In addition to appealing the district court’s order granting Long John Silver’s motion to compel arbitration, Johnson also аppealed the district court’s disposition of several other motions. Specifically, Johnson appealed (1) the district court’s order denying Johnson’s motion for a case status conference; and (2) the district court’s order affirming the magistrate’s order denying Johnson’s motions to compel discovery and denying a motiоn for expedited court service and disclosure of the identities of similarly situated employees. The basis for the first order was included in the district court’s published opinion, id. at 670. The second order, regarding discovery, expedited court service, and disclosure, was issued separately on November 24, 2003.
Again, the district court did not еrr in its disposition of Johnson’s motions, and adequately addressed Johnson’s arguments in its opinions. The district court’s denial of Johnson’s motion for a case status conferеnce is therefore affirmed on the basis of the reasoning detailed in the publishеd opinion, id. The district court’s order denying compelled discovery, expedited court service, and compelled disclosure of the identities of similarly situated employees is affirmed on the basis of the reasoning set forth in the November 24, 2003, order of Judge Wiseman.
The judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED.
