On October 7, 2022, WLF filed an amicus brief urging the Fifth Circuit to affirm a District Court order declaring the Consumer Product Safety Commission’s structure unconstitutional. WLF’s brief explains that the plaintiffs suffered an injury traceable to the unconstitutional structure that could be remedied by a favorable decision. The brief also explains that plaintiffs raised three distinct claims in the case so the order granting partial summary judgment could be certified as final. Finally, the brief highlights that principal officers of the United States cannot enjoy for-cause removal protections except in limited circumstances not present here.
