Docket No. Op. Below Argument Opinion Vote Author Term
18-868 7th Cir. N/A N/A N/A N/A OT 2018

Issue: Whether the Federal Power Act pre-empts only state subsidies that explicitly require a wholesale generator to sell its output in auctions approved by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, or whether the Federal Power Act also pre-empts state subsidies that lack such an express requirement but that, by design, subsidize only generators that sell their entire output via such auctions, thereby achieving the same effect.
