The Ghost of Chevron Deference: Perspectives on the Future of Administrative Law
This Halloween, a ghost is haunting administrative law classrooms across the country... the ghost of Chevron deference.
The Supreme Court recently overruled the doctrine of Chevron deference in the companion cases of Loper Bright Enterprises v. Raimondo and Relentless, Inc. v. Dep’t of Commerce. The Court held that courts must exercise independent judgment when determining the meaning of a statute and whether an agency has acted within its statutory authority. Our panelists will discuss the Court’s decision and will share perspectives on its potential implications for the future of administrative law.
PANELISTS:
Kent Barnett, Dean and J. Gilbert Reese Chair in Contract Law at The Ohio State University Moritz College of Law
