Case Overview

The government appealed Judge Chutkan's preliminary injunction which prevents the EPA from terminating the plaintiff's grants.


The Application

History

Climate United Fund challenged the EPA's grant termination as exceeding statutory authority. Judge Chutkan issued a preliminary injunction finding sufficient likelihood of success that the EPA lacked unilateral authority to terminate grants under the funding freeze executive order.

The Conclusion

The CADC decided the government's appeal of the preliminary injunction, determining whether the EPA possessed legal authority for the grant terminations and whether the injunction should be upheld or reversed.
