MacK Trucks, Inc. v. Environmental Protection Agency

How courts have described this case

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

• vacating an interim rule promulgated without notice-and-comment procedures, reasoning that § 553(b)(B) did not apply
• reviewing and vacating interim final rule even though agency was “in the process of promulgating a final rule” covering same issue
• “We have repeatedly made clear that the good cause exception is to be narrowly construed and only reluctantly countenanced.” (quotation marks omitted)
• “Because EPA lacked good cause to dispense with required notice and comment proce- dures, we conclude the IFR must be vacated without reaching Petitioners’ alternative arguments.”
• EPA interim final rule requiring penalties for sellers of non-compliant diesel engines not good cause when one manufacturer would be unable to sell the engines without the interim rule
• if belated comment-taking cured all error, “agencies would have no use for the APA”
