BRINTON* ABSTRACT Each year, hundreds of people, companies, organizations, and associations sue the federal government for injuries they have suf- fered at the hands of federal agencies. Such suits are often brought under the judicial review provisions of the Administrative Proce- dure Act (APA), which Congress enacted expressly to allow broad access to courts in an age of increasing administrative agency ac- tion. By the terms of the APA itself, all final agency action for which there is no other adequate remedy in a court is reviewable under the APA. But the very language meant to welcome such suits into court also acts as a bar: to be eligible for judicial review under the APA, agency actions must have “no other adequate remedy in a court” (NOARC). Despite the facial ambiguity of the NOARC require- ment—“adequacy is in the eye of the beholder,” as one scholar re- cently wrote—NOARC is a provision that has long been ignored by academia, treatise writers, and the Supreme Court. The Justices have only explicitly addressed the meaning of NOARC in one case, Bowen v. Massachusetts, 487 U.S. 879 (1988), with a patchwork opin- ion marked by its meandering analysis and muddled reasoning. With only Bowen as a guide, confusion has abounded—in the Court’s own jurisprudence, in the lower courts, and in the active 35568-nys_69-2 Sheet No. 5 Side A 10/28/2014 12:36:12 advocacy of practitioners. Recent cases demonstrate that the question of NOARC is not an esoteric one. Rather, the rights of children in need of state-pro- vided mental health care services, of women and Hispanic farmers to retain long-held family lands, and of U.S. citizens with Mexican American surnames applying for U.S. passports have all depended on the meaning of the NOARC requirement. And yet, no consensus about NOARC exists. In light of the NOARC requirement’s wide impact and high stakes, our anemic NOARC jurisprudence must be replaced with robust dialogue about the meaning of NOARC and * Research Fellow, J.
