Lawyer Defending CFPB Before Supreme Court Calls Seila Law’s Case ‘Remarkably Weak’
Virginia Bell Flynn discussed the article, “ Lawyer Defending CFPB Before Supreme Court Calls Seila Law’s Case ‘Remarkably Weak’,” in a recent edition of Accounts Recovery’s ARM Compliance Digest newsletter. She said, “In a Jan. 15 brief submitted to the Court by counsel for the CFPB, the CFPB argues that decisions made by Kathleen Kraninger since she took over as director of the agency prove there is no reason to “invalidate an Act of Congress,” noting that the theory of the unitary executive appear alive and well. CFPB also maintains that the dispute is not just unripe, but entirely theoretical, and the case does not present a proper occasion for the Supreme Court to resolve the question the petitioner asks it decide.”
