Last month, Justices Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh denounced what they perceived to be a growing problem: federal judges in the lower courts ignoring the Supreme Court’s decisions in major cases. “Lower court judges may sometimes disagree with this court’s decisions, but they are never free to defy them,” they gravely intoned.
Their target was Judge William Young, a federal judge in Massachusetts appointed by Ronald Reagan in 1985, who allegedly defied the court’s orders in a case involving frozen NIH grants. He had distinguished the case from one involving frozen Department of Education grants earlier this year. In a court session last week, Young apologized for any perceived defiance. Other jurists, including retired Justice Stephen Breyer, have since come to Young’s defense.
If Gorsuch and Kavanaugh are looking for other targets for their ire, there is good news: Another prominent federal judge issued an order on Monday that defied both black-letter federal law and long-standing Supreme Court precedent. They might even be able to identify the culprit on sight since they all work in the same building.
