The Nov. 14 event, held in Washington, D.C., brought together approximately 300 stakeholders in-person and online from the public and private sectors for three discussion sessions. Prof. Hickman was on a panel discussing the impact of the Supreme Court’s Loper Bright decision, a history of the Chevron deference doctrine, and the future outlook of statutory and regulatory interpretation now that Loper Bright has overturned Chevron and the constraints it placed on judicial judgment.
