The Supreme Court’s decision in Loper Bright upended 40 years of administrative law precedent, overturning the Chevron doctrine, which had required courts to give deference to an agency’s reasonable interpretation of vague laws and regulations.
How will this landmark decision impact the future of administrative/regulatory law?
Understanding the new legal landscape is crucial, whether you’re an agency attorney, a legislative or regulatory drafter, or an advocate for those affected by agency decisions.
Please join us to hear our expert panel discuss possible impacts at the federal and local level. We’ll also learn tips for those practicing in this area, so you can prepare for what's next.
Light snacks and beverages will be provided and we’ll have time for networking too. For those outside the DC area, we invite you all to please join us via Zoom.
