IN 2024 THE SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES, OVER TURNED A 1984 CASE, CHEVRON U.S.A INC. v. NRDC 467 U.S 837 THAT JUDGES HAD BEEN USING TO ALLOW PRISON OFFICIAL B.S, SO LETS TALK ABOUT IT'S REPLACEMENT By William Thorpe

In 2024 The Supreme Court of The United States ruled in a case LOPER BRIGHT ENTERS. v. RAIMONDO 603 U.S 369 and I quote "Chevron, U.S.A INC. v. NRDC INC.467 U.S.837 is overruled. Courts must exercise their independent judgment in deciding whether an agency has acted within its statutory authority as the APA requires. Chevron deference precludes Courts from exercising the Judicial Power vested in them by Article III to say what the law is. The only way to ensure that the law will not merely change erratically, but will develop in a principled and intelligible fashion, is to leave Chevron behind." [okay that was in summation the sophistry of those 6 Justices, namely, ROBERTS, THOMAS, ALITO, GORSUCH, KAVANAUGH and BARRETT who agreed to overturn Chevron and the 3 dissenters were KAGAN, SOTOMAYOR and JACKSON. There is something funny about a lot of this stuff and its more pronounced and in a lot of ways childishly striking with how it comes across that they've forgotten that its supposed to be about the People, that they're dealing with people, yeah the human being, the socio-person and personhood, yes socio-personhood] Before I continue I need to stipulate that, I'm not flag waving or burning it over none of the jurisprudence coming out of the current Supreme Court of The United States, but their work actually does serve a real and consequential purpose, which is it enables the amplification of that necessary speech of that, 3.5% of the population, who are clear eyed and clamoring, that the Emperor has no clothes. Here is a reminder of what The Chevron case which came to be characterized as the Chevron Deference, or for the Prisoner and as it concerns this work the Virginia Prisoner. So in 1984, The Supreme Court of The United States ruled, "That if a statute was silent or ambiguous with respect to the specific issue, the question for a Court was whether the Agency's action was based on a permissible construction of the statute. Further considerable weight was to be accorded to an Agency's construction of a statutory scheme." [again the sophistry of this also cuts both ways, for one "agencies" mean and are function of the Executive or The President or as specific to Virginia The Governor, the executive is tasked with executing and defending the law, with the implication, of as is fit. Now what I want to point out is this simple fact.

The only absolute is ACCOUNTABILITY, regardless and irrespective of context, which is to simply say, if you are unable to swim, regardless of reason, it's accountability, is drowning. However at any point in the accountability process of drowning, there can be intercession, again irrespective of means. So for example a Dolphin can intercede and save the drowning person. The point of all of this, the Supreme Court's rulings in both Chevron and Loper are inexorable formulations of that Social Contract, organic accountability-function that is that regardless of sophistry masterless relationship, irrespective of whether there is that stabilizing honesty of maintaining the integrity of the principle or that logical pursuit of, how do we do our human condition efficiently, meaning that accountable adherence to the business of the human condition, or we stay stuck in the delusional indulgence of the sophist permissibility of idealistic-dictatorship and its fiat bureaucracy of impunity, which is whether its Chevron and its colloquial deference or Loper and its tautology of "The only way to ensure that the law will not merely change erratically, but will develop in a principled and intelligible fashion....", the fact is neither jurisprudence is speaking to the existence of the accountability-function. During the reign and supremacy of Chevron and its kowtowing to agency interpretations and the relative applications, Judges had no problem with accepting the impunity of the prison official and as it relates to this work, the Virginia Prison Official, under the logic that the prison official shouldn't be second guessed because the job of administering the prison environment was an improbable undertaking, so Law, its application and supposedly all-seeing eye had to avert its gaze from the debased professional behavior of the prison official, nevertheless the fact that the pursuit of justice and its repair of harm, is again supposedly blind, meaning a purported "equality under law". The issue however is the human condition and its Social Contract expression anticipates the emergence and presence of, "contradictions", which arguments evidenced as the Chevron Deference are, but what is human condition bane are antagonisms, which denials and reluctances to recognize and acknowledge, that cause and effects are systemic ,is. So now that we are in this LOPER BRIGHT world, how do we understand it's activity for our purpose, our work of holding the Virginia prison official accountable. First of all since the Supreme Court gave us LOPER BRIGHT, only two States have confronted it in State criminal justice circumstances. Namely, Minnesota in KAMBON v. STATE 23 N.W 3d 576 (2025) [ and in this Minnesota encounter the existence of Loper Bright caused Minnesota to make a farce of its very own jurisprudence, which proves and underscores the tautology of Loper Bright]. Then, Florida tangled with Loper Bright in a State Habeas construction, BATES v. STATE 416 So.3d 312 (2025) [again another comical encounter with Loper Bright].But then in this Connecticut State case we see a defiance to the dismissal of Chevron, so in WILLIAMS v. ARI of CONN.INC. 2024 CONN SUPER LEXIS 1786, we see a Connecticut court declaring that the annihilation and dismissal of Chevron and its colloquial deference doesn't mean it "no longer applys in State Court". Both CHEVRON and LOPER BRIGHT deal with the the actual practice of Government and governance, through the agents or "Agencies" of its administration. The Virginia Department of Corrections as Agency, an agent of The Government of The Commonwealth of Virginia, under VIRGINIA'S ADMINISTRATIVE PROCESS ACT. Code 2.2-4000 is directed and tasked with imprisoning people, while denying Prisoners its process.
