Court Decisions Positive

First Circuit Upholds Block on $100,000 H-1B Fee as Unauthorized Tax

The 1st U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals rejected the Trump administration's bid to reinstate a $100,000 fee on new H-1B visas, affirming a lower court ruling that the charge is an unconstitutional tax. For legal professionals, this decision underscores the judiciary's role in enforcing separation-of-powers limits on executive fee-setting authority and provides a template for challenging similar regulatory overreach.
