In a 6-3 decision handed down on June 28, 2024, the Supreme Court reversed the Chevron doctrine, a decades-old precedent. The bottom line going forward is that courts, not agencies, have the final say in interpreting statutes.

On June 28, 2024, the U.S. Supreme Court overturned the Chevron deference in Loper Bright Enterprises v. Raimondo, shifting the power to interpret ambiguous statutes from federal agencies to the judiciary. This ruling eliminates the precedent requiring courts to defer to agency interpretations, potentially leading to increased litigation and regulatory uncertainty (Ropes & Gray LLP) (The CommLaw Group). Now the question is, what are the possible implications for FEMA? Read more here: https://lnkd.in/e6ZM-XyC

It finally happened: as widely expected, the Supreme Court overruled Chevron, the doctrine of deference due by courts to the legal interpretations made by federal agencies. And Ars Technica found it timely to requote Pantelis Michalopoulos, whose past statement withstood the seismic change brought by this action: "I think the whole sturm und drang about Chevron is a little bit overdone. Because in the end, the judges and the justices know how to defer to the agency when they agree with it and how to not defer to the agency when they think they know better, as they often do." These thoughts remain as relevant after the court’s decision as they were long before. The full article, entitled “SCOTUS Kills Chevron Deference, Giving Courts More Power to Block Federal Rules,” can be found here.

Is so-called "Chevron Deference" on the chopping block? 2 cases before the #supremecourt will be heard on Wednesday that could reshape regulatory power by limiting or reversing the influential 1984 case of Chevron v. Natural Resources Defense Council. The 1984 Chevron decision stands for the proposition that judges should defer to federal agency interpretations of any ambiguities in the laws they are charged to implement, so long as such interpretations are "reasonable" under the circumstances. Some legal observers have long argued that Chevron Deference has led to unreasonable overreach by federal agencies and that #congress alone should fill in the gaps in #legislation #federallaw The Wall Street Journal has gone so far as to editorialize that this "judicial doctrine has become a license for regulators to grab power from Congress." #regulatorycompliance #regulators The cases are Loper Bright Enterprises, Inc., v. Raimondo and Relentless, Inc. v. Dept. of Commerce.
