2024 Update Memo

Teacher's Manual

Administrative Law: A Contemporary Approach, 4th Edition is updated, rewritten, and reorganized. Instead of grouping all the materials in two sections, one rulemaking and the other adjudication, the book begins by setting out the historical and current arguments regarding regulation and current controversies pertaining to separation of powers, the metes and bounds of presidential power, and the changing role of congress and the courts as each relates to the regulatory state. That is followed by sections on rulemaking, adjudication, judicial review, and application of ad law in select fields (e.g., criminal detention, immigration, discovery in ad law, education, etc.).

There are number of new features in the book including the addition of 250 cases and materials that are “recent sightings” of older cases. Post-case notes and practice pointers were also revised. However, the bulk of the new material consists of 24 new principal cases, almost all from the Supreme Court, decided between 2017 and the present. A list of those cases with the page numbers in the 4th edition follows:
