Amicus Briefs

Question Presented

Whether the FTC’s administrative prosecution—where it acts as prosecutor and judge of its own cause, invariably ruling for itself—violates the U.S. Constitution, including Article III, and the Due Process Clause of the Fifth Amendment, and whether it is therefore void ab initio and must be enjoined.

Question Presented

Question Presented

Does the Fourth Amendment permit warrantless searches of customer records held by third-party service providers if the records are contractually owned by the customer, or if those records enable surveillance of future behavior? If not, does the third-party doctrine need to be discarded or modified to prevent such searches?

Question Presented

Does a family court order, which authorizes Child Services to enter and search an innocent mother’s home and supervise her parenting, violate the mother’s Fourth Amendment right to be free from unreasonable searches?

Question Presented

1. Whether the academic and pedagogical choices of a privately owned and run school constitute state action simply because it contracts with the state to offer a free educational option for interested students.
2. Whether a state violates the Free Exercise Clause by excluding privately run religious schools from the state’s charter-school program solely because the schools are religious, or whether a state can justify such an exclusion by invoking anti-establishment interests that go further than the Establishment Clause requires.

Question Presented

Question Presented

Whether the Corporate Transparency Act exceeds constitutional limits on the federal government’s powers.

Question Presented

Where the subject of a state investigatory demand has established a reasonably objective chill of its First Amendment rights, is a federal court in a first-filed action deprived of jurisdiction because those rights must be adjudicated in state court.

Question Presented

Whether 47 U.S.C. § 254 violates the nondelegation doctrine by imposing no objective limit on the revenue to be raised for the Universal Service Fund. 2. Whether the FCC violates the private nondelegation doctrine by transferring its revenue raising power to the Universal Service Administrative Company, a private company run by industry interest groups. 3. Whether the combination of those two delegations violates the nondelegation doctrine. Whether this case is moot in light of the challengers’ failure to seek preliminary relief before the Fifth Circuit.

Question Presented

Whether judicial review under the Administrative Procedure Act for CPSC notices of violation is unavailable until the agency further acts through formal enforcement.
