We have been asked to announce the following webinar (I am definitely looking forward to hearing this one):
The U.S. Supreme Court’s Decision in CFSA v. CFPB: Who Will Win and What Does It Mean?A special webinar roundtable featuring analysis of the oral argument by several renowned attorneys who filed amicus briefs on all sides of the issue.The U.S. Supreme Court will hold oral argument on October 3, 2023, in Community Financial Services Association of America Ltd. v. Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, a case with profound potential implications for the future of the CFPB: The Court will rule on whether the CFPB’s funding mechanism violates the U.S. Constitution’s Appropriations Clause and, if so, what the appropriate remedy should be.Our exclusive roundtable brings together six attorneys who filed amicus briefs with the Supreme Court. They will share their reactions to the oral arguments, important insights into the thinking of the nine Justices, predictions for how and when the Court will rule, and potential implications for the CFPB, the industry, and consumers.They will assess the case from all angles, as three briefs supported the CFPB, two supported the CFSA, and one industry brief supported neither party, taking the position that although the CFPB’s funding is unconstitutional, the Supreme Court should validate other final regulations previously issued by the CFPB so as not to create chaos. When registering, you will have the opportunity to submit questions you would like our speakers to address during the webinar.Space is limited.Tuesday, October 17, 2023 | 2:00 – 3:30 PM ETREGISTER HERE<https://responses.ballardspahr.com/e/egk25gkkxyjnd6q/dd249125-db27-4476-b6bc-3c8267a6ed43>Host and Moderator:Alan S.
