How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • noting that several agencies together promulgated the FAR, which “weaken[s] the case for deference” to any single agency’s interpretation of the FAR
  • stating that the distinction between substantial-evi- dence and arbitrary-and-capricious review is “largely semantic” because under both, the touchstone is ra- tionality
  • “The diffusion of the interpretive authority among several agencies, and the possibility of inconsistent interpretations, weaken the case for deference.”
