The Supreme Court agreed on May 1 to look at a federal investor protection law after a Wall Street whistleblower claimed his former employer fired him for refusing to paint an unjustifiably rosy picture of market outlooks.

The law concerned is the federal Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 which was approved by Congress after accounting fraud led to the high-profile collapse of WorldCom Inc., Tyco International, and Enron Corp.
