In that situation, the downsides of delay in definitively resolving the status of the precedent sometimes tend to outweigh the benefits of further lower-court consideration,&rdquo; Kavanaugh wrote. &ldquo;So it is here. Therefore, I not only would have granted a stay but also would have granted certiorari before judgment.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Writing for the dissent, Associate Justice Elena Kagan accused the majority of using the &ldquo;emergency docket to destroy the independence of an independent agency, as established by Congress.&rdquo; She further claimed that the actions of her Republican-appointed colleagues in granting the administration&rsquo;s stays in such cases will result in &ldquo;an increase of executive power at the expense of legislative authority.&rdquo; <\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\">\n<div class=\"article-author-description fst-italic\">      Shawn Fleetwood is a staff writer for The Federalist and a graduate of the University of Mary Washington.
