| Question presented | Department of Labor, et al., Petitioners v. Sun Valley Orchards, LLC1. Whether Article III of the Constitution precludes the Department of Labor from adjudicating proceedings to collect monetary remedies from employers who have allegedly violated the terms and conditions of employment of H-2A workers and domestic workers in corresponding employment? 2. Whether 8 U. S. C. §1188(g)(2) authorizes the Department of Labor to adjudicate proceedings to collect monetary remedies from employers who have allegedly violated the terms and conditions of employment of H-2A workers and domestic workers in corresponding employment? | Tedford's Tenancy, LLC v. City of New York, New York1. When a property owner has sufficiently pled jurisdictional standing for a Fifth Amendment regulatory takings claim, may the court nonetheless dismiss the case on prudential ripeness grounds? 2. Whether a regulatory takings claim under the Fifth Amendment can be dismissed as prudentially unripe when a plaintiff is ineligible for administrative relief or such relief is facially incapable of altering the economic impact of the regulation? | Apple Inc. v. International Trade Commission1. Whether a patentee fails to establish “significant employment of labor or capital” “with respect to the articles protected by the patent” under 19 U.S.C. §1337(a)(3)(B) where the patentee’s investment falls into one of three uses listed only in §1337(a)(3)(C). 2. Whether the Federal Circuit’s affirmance of an agency decision where (1) the court’s rationale does not appear in the agency’s opinion and (2) the agency’s result was not required by law is contrary to SEC v. Chenery Corp. , 318 U.S. 80 (1943), and its progeny. |
| Summary | Department of Labor, et al., Petitioners v. Sun Valley Orchards, LLCThis case concerns whether the Department of Labor may use its own administrative process to impose monetary remedies on an H-2A agricultural employer alleged to have violated required working and living conditions for visa and corresponding U.S. workers. The Court will consider both the agency’s statutory authority and whether Article III requires these claims to be decided first by a federal court. | Tedford's Tenancy, LLC v. City of New York, New YorkTedford’s Tenancy, LLC asks whether a property owner’s Fifth Amendment claim that a regulation takes property without compensation can be dismissed as premature, including when relief through an agency is unavailable or could not change the regulation’s economic impact. The case is pending; distribution of the petition for a conference is not a decision to hear it or resolve those questions. | Apple Inc. v. International Trade CommissionApple asks the Supreme Court to review the Federal Circuit’s decision upholding an import ban on Apple Watches with pulse-oximetry features. Apple argues that the appeals court wrongly let a patent owner count research-and-development spending under a category for other investments and relied on a reason the International Trade Commission had not given. |
