In Bloomberg Law Article, IP Litigators Examine ITC Investigation Impacts Following Overturning of Chevron Doctrine

Two months after the U.S. Supreme Court ruling in Loper Bright v. Raimondo overturned the long-standing Chevron deference doctrine that allowed courts to defer to federal agency interpretations of ambiguous statues, new appellate challenges and lawsuits are being filed.

In a Bloomberg Law article, IP litigators examine areas where the U.S. International Trade Commission’s authority under Section 337 of the Tariff Act on unfair import investigations may be affected by the Loper Bright ruling.

The authors note that future litigation might test the ITC’s interpretations of Section 337, potentially reshaping its practices and authority and how import investigations are conducted and enforced.

The article was authored by IP litigation partner Matt Rizzolo, IP litigation counsel Matthew Shapiro and IP litigation associate Cole Dunn.
