- Ninth Circuit questions auto groups’ right to intervene in emissions waiver dispute
The Ninth Circuit questioned automotive industry groups' attempt to intervene in a lawsuit where California and other states challenge federal actions that disapproved of California's stricter emissions standards. The auto groups argue their economic interests are harmed if California's standards are upheld, but judges expressed skepticism about their eligibility to intervene. The case involves the Clean Air Act and the Congressional Review Act.
