Appeal Pending:


"Court Delays Action on Appeal of ACA Subsidies Case"
"On December 5, 2016, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit issued an order to stay  the administration’s appeal of the district court decision in U.S. House of Representatives v. Burwell, a case challenging Cost-Sharing Reduction (“CSR”) payments to health insurance issuers under the Affordable Care Act (“ACA”) Section 1402. The district court decision found that the House of Representatives had standing to sue the executive branch, that reimbursements to health insurance issuers for CSR requires an appropriation by Congress, and that the Obama Administration’s reimbursements to issuers of CSR without an annual appropriation was illegal. The D.C. Circuit’s stay order directed the parties to “file motions to govern further proceedings by February 21, 2017”—one month after President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration."
