In the Supreme Court of the United States Nos. 19-1279 and 19-1285 In the Supreme Court of the United States JAKE LATURNER, KANSAS STATE TREASURER, PETITIONER v. UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, ET AL. ANDREA LEA, ARKANSAS STATE AUDITOR, PETITIONER v. UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, ET AL. ON PETITIONS FOR WRITS OF CERTIORARI TO THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FEDERAL CIRCUIT BRIEF FOR THE UNITED STATES IN OPPOSITION JEFFREY B. WALL Acting Solicitor General Counsel of Record MARK B. STERN ALISA B. KLEIN Attorneys Department of Justice Washington, D.C. 20530-0001 [email protected] (202) 514-2217 QUESTIONS PRESENTED Congress authorized the U.S. Department of the Treasury (Treasury) to establish the terms and condi- tions of the U.S. savings-bond program, under which Treasury sells savings bonds to raise revenue for the federal government. 31 U.S.C. 3105(c). Treasury’s reg- ulations do not impose any time limit for bond owners to redeem their bonds, which never expire. The owners may redeem the bonds at any time by presenting the physical bonds for payment. Kansas and Arkansas enacted state laws deeming a U.S. savings bond to be abandoned property if the owner does not redeem the bond within five years after it matures. Those States also enacted laws providing that such a bond shall escheat to the State two or three years after becoming abandoned property. Based on those laws, the States claimed title to an unknown num- ber of absent bonds—i.e., bonds not in their possession. After Treasury denied their requests to redeem those bonds, the States brought these actions, alleging that they are the rightful owners of the bonds and are enti- tled to payment. The questions presented are as fol- lows: 1. Whether federal law preempts the state laws on which Kansas and Arkansas relied in claiming owner- ship of the absent bonds. 2. Whether, if the States are the rightful owners of the absent bonds, they can redeem the bonds without the physical bonds or the bonds’ serial numbers. 3. Whether, if the States are the rightful owners of the absent bonds, Treasury’s regulations effect a Fifth Amendment taking.

OPINION AND ORDER KAPLAN, Judge. In this breach-of-contract case, Plaintiff Andrea Lea, Auditor of the State of Arkansas (Arkansas), claims that Arkansas has obtained title under the state’s Unclaimed Property Act to a large but unknown number of matured, unredeemed United States savings bonds, and that the government has wrongfully failed to redeem those bonds. The bonds, issued by the United States Department of the Treasury (Treasury), carry thirty- or forty-year maturity periods. Although Arkansas claims that it owns the bonds, it does not possess the bond certificates that Treasury issued when the bonds were purchased.
