wow, how can you be allowed to sue a regulator

• Arnt 7y ago
  Why wouldn't you be able to? The legislator legislates, the court rules. Since the regulator is not one of those two, why can't it be sued? The law applies equally to everyone. There are exceptions, but why should there be an exception for someone who's neither court nor legislature? What's the justification for having another exception?

    the court rules on cases involving the rules, not whether the regulator can make the rule surely

      Regulators don’t make the law, they make regulations that supposedly enforce that law. Often they do this imperfectly. The remedy is a lawsuit where a judge and/or jury decides if the regulation is proper and legal under the law.
