City of Portland, Oregon v. Federal Communications Commission
Petition for certiorari denied on June 28, 2021
Issues: (1) Whether the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit erred in upholding the Federal Communications Commission’s
interpretation of “effect of prohibiting” in light of its
plain meaning, lack of a limiting standard and National Cable & Telecommunications Association v.
Brand X Internet Services; and (2) whether the divided 9th Circuit erred in affirming the
FCC’s interpretation of 47 U.S.C.
§ 253 to mandate access,
at cost, to public property for private commercial use.
