The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday agreed to decide whether President Barack Obama's recess appointments to the National Labor Relations Board violated the Constitution.
The justices, as expected, granted review in National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) v. Noel Canning, to determine the scope of the president's power under the recess appointments clause in the Constitution. The Obama Administration and Noel Canning, a soft drink bottler and distributor in Yakima, Washington, had urged the court to take the case. The high court's orders list is here [PDF].
