Washington, D.C., Jan. 03, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Supreme Court of Ohio, in a 4-3 opinion , denounced agency deference and ruled that the state’s courts need not defer to agency interpretations of ambiguous statutes.

Key Points: 
  • Washington, D.C., Jan. 03, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Supreme Court of Ohio, in a 4-3 opinion , denounced agency deference and ruled that the state’s courts need not defer to agency interpretations of ambiguous statutes.
  • In line with NCLA’s analysis, the Supreme Court of Ohio held that mandatory agency deference violates separation-of-powers principles and strips courts of the judicial authority “to say what the law is.” Citing NCLA founder and CEO Philip Hamburger’s scholarship, the Court also highlighted how agency deference results in systematically biased judgments in cases where a government agency is also a party.
  • NCLA commends the Supreme Court of Ohio for ruling that courts, not government agencies, have the final say over ambiguous laws.
  • NCLA applauds the Court for clarifying Ohio’s deference jurisprudence and joining the increasing number of courts in other states who have similarly rejected deference and declined to cede judicial authority to executive agencies.”
