Independent Agencies: Government’S Scourge Or Salvation?, Aulana L. Peters Apr 1988

Independent Agencies: Government’S Scourge Or Salvation?, Aulana L. Peters

Duke Law Journal

This symposium invites reflection on a number of important questions concerning the independence of the independent regulatory agencies. Three such questions are briefly examined in this essay: First, what is the nature of an independent agency? Second, why should regulatory agencies be independent? Finally, what constrains, and what ought to constrain, an agency's independence? These questions are considered against the backdrop of the legal debate about the constitutional legitimacy of independent regulatory agencies that has been raging since Congress created the first such agency a hundred years ago. The thoughts and conclusions offered in this essay draw on the history …


Life In The Administrative Track: Administrative Adjudication Of Claims Against Savings Institution Receiverships, Lawrence G. Baxter Apr 1988

Life In The Administrative Track: Administrative Adjudication Of Claims Against Savings Institution Receiverships, Lawrence G. Baxter

Duke Law Journal

INTRODUCTION In the modern financial services industry, thrifts 1 engage in an unprecedented range of complex and risky commercial transactions. Consequently, the receiver of a failed thrift, which in most cases is the Federal Savings and Loan Insurance Corporation (FSLIC) appointed by the Federal Home Loan Bank Board (FHLBB), 2 is likely to face a host of complex claims. These claims arise not only from the thrift's deposit liabilities but also from its investment transactions and the incidental disputes generated by such activities. The scene of a thrift failure is often already strewn with litigation, and the receivership itself is …

The Purposes And Limits Of Independent Agencies, Paul R. Verkuil Apr 1988

The Purposes And Limits Of Independent Agencies, Paul R. Verkuil

Duke Law Journal

The independent agency has been around for 100 years now, but we are still trying to understand how it best relates to the administration of government. Its popularity as an organizational mechanism is more a function of competing political forces within the legislative and executive branches than of any systematic analysis of its effectiveness. Yet one can discern reasons why independent agencies might be superior mechanisms for administering government programs if their structure and purpose are analyzed functionally. This essay proposes to do that and, in the process, reach some conclusions about both the potential and the limits of the …


Developments Under The Freedom Of Information Act—1987, Maria H. Benecki Apr 1988

Developments Under The Freedom Of Information Act—1987, Maria H. Benecki

Duke Law Journal

The twenty-first year of the Freedom of Information Act 1 (FOIA) saw reaction by the federal government to amendments passed in 1986. 2 The 1986 amendments directed federal agencies to charge lower fees for information requests by "news media" and "scientific and educational institutions" and higher fees for requests by "commercial users." 3 In order to ensure uniformity, Congress directed the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to establish guidelines for determining whether a requester fits into any of the three categories. 4 The initial OMB proposal met resistance from both requesters and members of Congress. 5 The final guidelines …


Congressional Delegation Of Adjudicatory Power To Federal Agencies And The Right To Trial By Jury, Paul K. Sun Jr. Apr 1988

Congressional Delegation Of Adjudicatory Power To Federal Agencies And The Right To Trial By Jury, Paul K. Sun Jr.

Duke Law Journal

The continued growth of the administrative bureaucracy and its increased impact on the rights and duties of citizens is a well-documented phenomenon of the twentieth century. 1 At the federal level, bureaucracy flourishes as Congress delegates ever more responsibility to agencies. 2 Within their statutorily defined fields, federal agencies typically perform the functions of rulemaking, enforcement and adjudication. 3 This note focuses on the adjudicatory function 4 and considers whether, when Congress creates a new statutory cause of action, 5 the seventh amendment 6 limits Congress's ability to delegate responsibility for adjudicating cases under that statute to a federal administrative …
