Volume 112 Senior Staff Editor Cited by West Virginia Court of Appeals

Our very own Caleb Childers was cited by the West Virginia Court of Appeals in a May 2024 opinion.

Find Childers cited in footnote 5 of St. Joseph's Hosp. of Buckhannon, Inc. v. Stonewall Jackson Mem'l Hosp. Co. This administrative law case involved a dispute between St. Joseph’s Hospital and the West Virginia Health Care Authority over the proposed relocation of a competitor’s hospital. The Court grappled with the issue of how much deference to give to the Authority in its decision to not require a Certificate of Demand for the relocation.

Discussing Chevron deference, the Court cited Childers’ Note, The Major Question Left for the Roberts Court, Will Chevron Survive? Childers’ Note provides a comprehensive analysis of Chevron deference and its imperiled future in light of the Supreme Court’s recent stonewalling of the doctrine. To read Childers’ Note, click here.
