SCOTUS agreed to take up a case with significant implications for its next term, concerning a dispute on whether to abolish a legal doctrine giving agencies a wide scope to define their own powers.

The high court will take up an appeal by four New Jersey fishing companies asking the justices to overturn the landmark 1984 Chevron v. Natural Resources Defense Council ruling. That decision instructed courts to defer to administrative agencies when they provide a reasonable interpretation of a vague statute.Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, an appointee of President Joe Biden, recused from the case known as Loper Bright Enterprises v. Raimondo.
