The experts from Manatt, Phelps & Phillips are back to discuss the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau's (CFPB) registries on terms and conditions and "bad actors." We dive deep on what each registry is, the motivation for their promulgation, the impact they could have on consumers who need credit and the constitutionality of the Bureau in the first place.

In this episode of Perfect Balance: An Advertising Law Podcast, host Po Yi is joined by Bez Stern, a new partner in Manatt's Consumer Protection and Advertising practice group, to discuss some of the recent actions taken by the FTC. In particular, Po and Bez discuss a sweeping new rule proposed by the FTC that would ban non-compete clauses and the Commission's position on the scope of its Section 5 Authority, recent regulatory developments relating to consumer reviews, and the increasing focus on ESG in advertising by the FTC, states and the NAD.

Under the Biden Administration, Consumer Financial Protection Bureau Director Rohit Chopra has dramatically increased the substantive reach of the CFPB's use of guidance documents and examination and supervision powers. This includes the articulation of a new standard of Unfair, Deceptive, or Abusive Acts or Practices (UDAAP) that includes allegedly discriminatory practices. It also has announced it intends to use “dormant” powers from Dodd-Frank that would allow it to conduct supervisory exams on nonbanks or any fintech it believes is risky. Many critics argue that many of these acts should be conducted through notice and comment rule-making processes and point to similar efforts during the Obama Administration when similar extensive use of guidance was treated as equivalent to a rulemaking for purposes of the Congressional Review Act. A major lawsuit has also challenged this assertion of authority by the CFPB.In this episode, experts discuss the specifics of the CFPB's assertion of expansive authority in these areas, the use of supervision more generally in relation to rulemaking, and the lawsuit that has challenged these acts.Featuring:Brian Johnson, Managing Director, Banking Supervision and Regulation Group, Patomak Global PartnersBryan Schneider, Partner, Manatt, Phelps & Phillips, LLP[Moderator] Todd Zywicki, George Mason University Foundation Professor of Law, Antonin Scalia Law School, George Mason UniversityVisit our website – www.RegProject.org – to learn more, view all of our content, and connect with us on social media.*******As always, the Federalist Society takes no position on particular legal or public policy issues; all expressions of opinion are those of the speaker.

He also advises clients on SEC and broker-dealer/investment advisory compliance, corporate swap transactions, and blockchain technology.In this interview, Brian discusses how investment has cooled a bit, but overall the impact has been modest. Believers in the technology are not shying away from investing and building; those on the fence are still taking a wait-and-see approach. Companies can no longer raise money at will, and due diligence has increased.We also cover the CeFi v. DeFi debate, the downfall of centralized lenders, the user experience issues that are a barrier to greater adoption, why regulation is as much an opportunity as it is a threat, and much more.

The Cult of the Robe With Deborah Kelly, A Partner In the Employment & Labor Practice At Manatt and Former Pro Bono Counsel to the National Abortion Federation Speaks With Host Richard Levick of LEVICK: Deborah Kelly, a partner in the Employment and Labor practice at Manatt, was pro bono counsel to the National Abortion Federation for ten years and in that capacity dealt with the height of Operation Rescue murdering clinic doctors and co-authored an amicus brief to the U.S. Supreme Court on abortion, speaks with host Richard Levick of LEVICK. Deborah, who is known for her straightforward, “cut-to-the-chase” opinions, speaks for herself – not for Manatt – in this remarkably candid and opinionated interview. From her experiences, she is fully aware of what some in the pro-life movement are capable of, especially now that they have been unleashed and are already introducing and passing legislation in multiple states to make access to some forms of contraception, interstate travel and corporate health care limited and, in some cases illegal. She provides recommendations for companies and provides an unvarnished view of the road ahead.

Ben Shatz, the Co-Chair of Manatt, Phelps & Phillips Appellate Practice Group, has one of the more unique origin stories in legal blogging. His publication, Southern California Appellate News was not an intentional marketing effort on his or his firm's part, but rather a passing of a torch. The blog was originally founded in June of 2010 by an Orange County Court of Appeals research attorney Nathan Scott. After blogging for a few years, Scott was appointed to the bench in 2013 and selected Shatz to be his successor and carry on the blog. While it still retains its same classic look and charm, Shatz has grown the blog and its audience over what has now been almost a decade. He joins Bob Ambrogi on This Week in Legal Blogging and shares his thoughts on blogging and his efforts to foster a community.
