The U.S. Supreme Court upheld the right to a jury trial for Americans facing administrative proceedings, striking down the SEC’s administrative prosecution regime. The Court affirmed the Fifth Circuit’s decision in SEC v. Jarkesy, ruling 6-3 that the SEC violated George R. Jarkesy Jr.’s Seventh Amendment rights by using an Administrative Law Judge without a jury. This decision, aligning with the New Civil Liberties Alliance’s amicus brief, marks a significant victory for civil liberties and limits the SEC’s abuse of power.

Mark, Vec, and Jenin continue to discuss the win in this episode and dig into an interesting footnote.
