Overview

In a series of historic 2024 rulings, the U.S. Supreme Court reshaped the regulatory and enforcement landscape, heralding a new era in administrative law by shifting the balance of power between the regulators and the regulated.

  • Loper Bright
    This landmark decision reversed the Court’s 40-year-old Chevron precedent, redefining the scope and limits of regulatory authority, significantly impacting how Executive branch agencies interpret and enforce regulations, and making federal agency actions more vulnerable to judicial challenges.
  • Corner Post
    The Corner Post decision further delineates the boundaries of administrative power by redefining a six-year statute of limitations for claims brought under the Administrative Procedure Act (APA), making it easier for regulated organizations to challenge older federal rules.
  • Jarkesy
    In Jarkesy, the Court addressed critical administrative adjudication and due process issues, ruling that defendants have a constitutional right to a jury trial for federal enforcement proceedings involving civil money penalties.
