The Administrative Procedure Act empowers courts—not agencies—to decide a statute’s single best meaning.
"Chevron defies the command of the APA” because it “requires a court to ignore, not follow, ‘the reading the court would have reached’ had it exercised its independent judgment as required by the APA.”
It was only a matter of time. Is the court system starting to make a power grab? They can interpret laws the way they want?
The courts are properly reclaiming power from administrative agencies.
Is that what it is? Maybe I read the article wrong, I thought they were interpreting laws the way it suits them.
In the US courts have the role of interpreting laws. The Chevron case granted that judicial authority to administrative agencies. This decision corrects that longstanding error, in my opinion.
I realize they have a role in interpreting the law. Even when this error is corrected, what happens when the law is interpreted in a way that isnt right? Im sure it is only a matter of time before that happens. Or maybe I am just paranoid?
@Bell_curve nailed it. Only courts have the power to interpret law.
@Bell_curve = @siggy47 ? OMG haha
omg, not this again lol
I listen to Law Talk podcast with Epstein and Yoo
I also took one semester of Constitutional Law in college
I consider myself an expert, an armchair legal scholar
Federal administrative agencies abused a power they never should have been given in 1984 by Supreme Court, majority opinion written by Stevens
Cato occasionally publishes a good article lol
Yep, occasionally it correct.
Centralised vs. decentralized unelected experts. Lesser evil.
Is it better for US that the courts get more and more powerful? Shouldn't it make them more powerful than the administration? It's like courts favouring courts!
It's not a question of power. The question is which branch of government is responsible for interpreting laws or legal provisions
Now Ai era is begun 😂😂
