Judge Tanya Chutkan of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia ruled last week that the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (“NOAA”) must conduct searches of the private accounts and devices of members of the New England Fishery Management Council for records related to the Council’s approval of the Industry-Funded Monitoring Omnibus Amendment. The Omnibus Amendment is the controversial regulation at issue in Loper Bright Enterprises v. Raimondo, an important case in which the Supreme Court will reconsider the future of Chevron deference next year.
