Barring Judicial Review, Laura E. Dolbow -- Sharswood Fellow
Barring Judicial Review, Laura E. Dolbow -- Sharswood Fellow
Vanderbilt Law Review
Whether judicial review is available is one of the most hotly contested issues in administrative law. Recently, laws that prohibit judicial review have sparked debate in the Medicare, immigration, and patent contexts. These debates are continuing in challenges to the recently created Medicare price negotiation program. Yet despite debates about the removal of judicial review, little is known about how often, and in what contexts, Congress has expressly precluded review. This Article provides new insights about express preclusion by conducting an empirical study of the U.S. Code. It creates an original dataset of laws that expressly preclude judicial review of …

Tentative Interpretations: The Abracadabra Of Administrative Rulemaking And The End Of 'Alaska Hunters', Matthew P. Downer
Vanderbilt Law Review
Agency flexibility is a battlefield. When circumstances change or a new regime takes power, federal agencies often adjust their settled regulations to reflect new realities. There is a persistent struggle, however, between preserving this flexibility and protecting those who relied upon the previous regulations.' When an agency changes course, regulated entities must comply, often with little warning and at great expense. In 1946, Congress passed the Administrative Procedure Act ("APA") to balance these interests by restricting when and how agencies can promulgate and change regulations.
Unsurprisingly, the APA did not achieve a lasting d6tente. Instead, it merely created new fronts …
The Reviewability Of The President's Statutory Powers, Kevin M. Stack
The Reviewability Of The President's Statutory Powers, Kevin M. Stack
Vanderbilt Law Review
From the Supreme Court's earliest days, it has reviewed some, but not all, challenges to the President's claims that a statute authorized his action. Not surprisingly, the Court's decisions granting review of the President's assertions of statutory powers have garnered more attention than its denials of review. Beginning with Marbury v. Madison1 and Little v. Barreme,2 gaining momentum in the twentieth century with the extensive discussion of statutory authority in Youngstown Sheet & Tube Co. v. Sawyer3 and Dames & Moore v. Regan,4 and accelerating in recent years with Hamdi v. Rumsfeld,5 Hamdan v. Rumsfeld,6 and Medellin v. Texas,7 the …

Administrative Law -- 1957 Tennessee Survey, James B. Earle
Vanderbilt Law Review
Only a few cases by the Tennessee Supreme Court decided during the survey year considered questions of general administrative law. These concerned the timing and extent of judicial review of administrative action and the conduct of hearings by agencies.
Prerequisites to Judicial Review: Whether available administrative remedies must be exhausted by a litigant before seeking a review or other relief by court action is a question not always capable of exact prediction.' The "long settled rule of judicial administration that no one is entitled to judicial relief for a supposed or threatened injury until the prescribed administrative remedy has been …

Administrative Law -- 1956 Tennessee Survey, James B. Earle
Vanderbilt Law Review
Questions of the scope and timing of judicial review of administrative agency action were again before the courts during the period covered by this survey. Timing of Judicial Review: The problem of "timing" of judicial review of administrative action includes questions of the availability of administrative remedies and whether their exhaustion must be required before court action; ripeness for review, usually associated with the issuance of agency rules and regulations; and jurisdictional questions vis-a-vis the agency and the court.

Administrative Law -- 1955 Tennessee Survey, Paul H. Sanders
Vanderbilt Law Review
Judicial review of administrative agency action, with emphasis upon the limited nature of such review, has again been of major importance in Tennessee Administrative Law during the survey period, This is shown to be true not only in the number of decisions but also in the frequent utilization (and apparent broadening) of the doctrine of Hoover Motor Express Co. v. Railroad & Public Utilities Commission in according finality to administrative action. In addition to holdings on various aspects of judicial review, the Tennessee appellate courts contributed important decisions during the survey period dealing with delegation of legislative power and the …
