The U.S. Supreme Court on March 25 heard two regulatory appeals centering on which courts should have authority to try lawsuits that challenge Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) actions.

The court first heard EPA v. Calumet Shreveport Refining, followed by a second oral argument in the related cases of Oklahoma v. EPA and PacifiCorp v. EPA, which were consolidated and heard together.
