The eyes of the consumer finance world are now on the Supreme Court as it decides whether to grant the CFPB's certiorari petition in Consumer Financial Services Association Ltd. v. CFPB. In the decision, a Fifth Circuit panel held the CFPB's funding mechanism violates the Appropriations Clause of the U.S. Constitution. In Part I, we focused on the legal arguments underlying the Fifth Circuit decision and potential outcomes. In Part II, we discuss the potential practical effects of a Supreme Court decision that holds the CFPB's funding is unconstitutional on existing CFPB mortgage and other regulations and on pending and future CFPB enforcement actions. In particular, we consider how the current legal uncertainty might factor into the litigation strategy of companies that are the targets of CFPB enforcement activity as well as companies' compliance strategy. We also consider the uncertainty's impact on the CFPB's ongoing operations and conclude with a discussion of how Congress might react if the Supreme Court holds that the CFPB's funding is unconstitutional. Alan Kaplinsky, Senior Counsel in Ballard Spahr's Consumer Financial Services Group, moderates the discussion, joined by John Culhane, Richard Andreano, and Michael Gordon, partners in the Group.

The eyes of the consumer finance world are now on the Supreme Court as it decides whether to grant the CFPB's certiorari petition in CFSA v. CFPB. In the decision, a Fifth Circuit panel held the CFPB's funding mechanism violates the Appropriations Clause of the U.S. Constitution. We first review the background of CFSA's lawsuit, the mechanism through which the CFPB is funded, and Congress's policy rationale for the mechanism. We then examine the reasoning behind the Fifth Circuit's conclusion that the funding mechanism is unconstitutional, the CFPB's strategy in response to the decision, and the issues CFSA is expected to raise in a cross-petition for certiorari. We conclude with Adam's predictions on the outcome of the cert petitions, how SCOTUS is likely to rule if it grants the CFPB's petition, potential remedies if SCOTUS rules the funding is unconstitutional, and the impact of such a ruling on pending and future litigation challenging CFPB actions. Alan Kaplinsky, Senior Counsel in Ballard Spahr's Consumer Financial Services Group, moderates the discussion, joined by John Culhane, Richard Andreano, and Michael Gordon, partners in the Group.

This week saw the death of Ruth Bader Ginsberg and immediate controversy about who will replace her on the United States' Supreme Court, as the Democrats invent reasons to stall the process. The panellists reflect on the career of a remarkable advocate and jurist, and examine how the Republican push in the Senate to confirm a Trump nomination as replacement will affect the election. If even Mitt Romney wants to do it, what's stopping them? (2:12-35:50). Likewise, Australia's High Court also has some looming vacancies, due to the 72-year age of ‘statutory senility' enforced on Justices of the High Court, with Justice Nettle soon to step down. Why aren't Australians more interested in the choice of replacement shortly to be made by the Morrison Government, and – in light of controversial decisions such as Love/Thoms - do we need more scrutiny of the process for nomination? (35:50-56:32).

Hillbilly Elegy is a passionate and personal analysis of a culture in crisis—that of white working-class Americans. The decline of this group has never before been written about as searingly from the inside. J. D. Vance tells the story of what a social, regional, and class decline feels like when you were born with it hung around your neck. The Vance family story begins hopefully in postwar America. J. D.’s grandparents were “dirt poor and in love,” and moved north from Kentucky’s Appalachia region to Ohio to escape the dreadful poverty around them. They raised a middle-class family, and eventually their grandchild (the author) would graduate from Yale Law School, a conventional marker of their success. -- But as the family saga of Hillbilly Elegy plays out, we learn that this is only the short, superficial version. Vance’s grandparents, aunt, uncle, sister, and, most of all, his mother, struggled profoundly with the demands of their new middle-class life, and were never able to fully escape the legacy of abuse, alcoholism, poverty, and trauma so characteristic of their part of America. Vance piercingly shows how he still carries the demons of their chaotic family history. -- A deeply moving memoir with its share of humor and vividly colorful figures, Hillbilly Elegy is the story of how upward mobility really feels. And it is an urgent and troubling meditation on the loss of the American dream for a large segment of this country. -- Author J.D. Vance and Adam White of the Hoover Institute will join us to discuss Hillbilly Elegy and the future of blue-collar America. -- Featuring: J.D. Vance, Author, Hillbilly Elegy and Principal, Mithril Capital Management LLC. Moderator: Adam J.

Spokeo is a search engine for people. But unlike your phone book, Spokeo claims to glean its information from public databases, such as social media profiles. So when the site allegedly posted false info about Thomas Robins, he sued. On May 16, the Supreme Court issued its decision in Spokeo v. Robins, the latest in a line of cases where the Court tries to flesh out when a plaintiff is allowed to sue in federal courts — that is, whether the plaintiff has "standing." Evan is joined by Adam J. White, a research fellow at the Hoover Institution and of counsel at Boyden Gray & Associates. They discuss the case and its implications for tech policy. Why are big players like Google and Facebook so interested in the outcome?
