Supreme Court Roundup - Chevron Deference
Chevron Deference Edition
12:50 CORRECTION - Utility Air 573, U.S. is NOT a regulation.
It refers to the case Utility Air Regulatory Group v. EPA, (2014)
Today on Legalese, we are looking at 2 recent Supreme Court Opinions that curbed the legal doctrine in administrative law known as Chevron Deference.
American Hospital Association v. Becerra, 596 U.S. ___ (2022) - https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/21pdf/20-1114_09m1.pdf
West Virginia v Environmental Protection Agency, 596 U.S. ___ (2022) - https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/21pdf/20-1530_n758.pdf
And how in both cases the Court finally made meaningful changes to begin to curb the seemingly endless power assumed to be delegated to Executive Agencies under Administrative Law.
Utility Air Regulatory Group v. EPA, 573 U.S. 302 (2014) - https://supreme.justia.com/cases/federal/us/573/302/
42 U.S. Code § 1395l - Payment of benefits - https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/42/1395l
42 U.S. Code § 7411 - Standards of performance for new stationary sources - https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/42/7411
And we bid a fond farewell to Justice Steven Breyer!
