Go to Delaware, please

January 2, 2022

Walmart sued the U.S. government, seeking declaratory judgments on several issues about the enforcement of laws related to opioids. In the meantime, the the US brought an enforcement action against Walmart in Delaware. The panel in Walmart, Inc. v. U.S. Dep’t of Justice concluded that the Delaware action made this declaratory-judgment case unnecessary; two judges also concluded that Wal-Mart had not identified a specific type of action or decision as to which the United States had waived sovereign immunity in the Administrative Procedure Act. No. 21-40157 (Dec. 22, 2021).
