Darue Engineering - Oral Argument Mon, 18 Apr 2005 12:00:00 -0500 <p>The IRS seized property owned by Grable and gave Grable notice by certified mail before selling the property to Darue. Grable sued in state court, claiming Darue's title was invalid because federal law required the IRS to give Grable notice of the sale by personal service, not certified mail. Darue removed the case to federal disctrict court, arguing that the case presented a federal question because Grable's claim depended on an interpretation of federal tax law. The district court agreed and ruled for Darue. The Sixth Circuit affirmed the decision.</p> <p>Did a case involving the interpretation of federal tax law belong in federal court and not the state court where it was filed?</p> 04-603_20050418-argument http://www.oyez.org/cases/2000-2009/2004/2004_04_603/argument/ supreme, court, oyez, rehnquist Merrell Dow Pharmaceuticals Inc. v.

Illinois Council on Long Term Care, Inc. - Oral Argument Mon, 08 Nov 1999 12:00:00 -0500 <p>The Illinois Council on Long Term Care, Inc. (Council), an association of nursing homes participating in Medicare, sued the Secretary of Health and Human Services, Donna Shalala, challenging the validity of various Medicare regulations establishing sanctions and remedies for nursing homes found guilty of violating minimum health and safety standards. The Council alleged that certain terms in the new regulations were unconstitutionally vague, that the regulations created administrative procedures inconsistent with the U.S. Constitution's Due Process Clause, and that the regulations' legislative rules that were not promulgated consistent with the Administrative Procedure Act. The Council invoked the Federal District Court's federal-question jurisdiction, which states that "district courts shall have original jurisdiction of all civil actions arising under the Constitution, laws, or treaties of the United States," to rule on its claims. The District Court dismissed the suit on the ground that it lacked jurisdiction. The court concluded that set of special statutory provisions under the Medicare Act create a separate, virtually exclusive, system of administrative and judicial review for such claims. The Court of Appeals reversed and remanded the case for further proceedings.</p> <p>Does the Medicare Act bar judicial review, under federal-question jurisdiction, of challenges to the validity of Medicare regulations?</p> 98-1109_19991108-argument http://www.oyez.org/cases/1990-1999/1999/1999_98_1109/argument/ supreme, court, oyez, rehnquist Verlinden B.
