A federal appeals court on Friday
rejected a bid by groups
representing landlords to halt
the latest moratorium on residential
evictions imposed by President Joe
Biden’s administration, setting up a
U.S. Supreme Court showdown.
In a written order, the U.S. Court of
Appeals for the District of Columbia
Circuit denied an emergency request
by two chapters of the National Association
of Realtors to stop the COVID-19
pandemic-related eviction ban set by
the U.S. Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC). The moratorium,
implemented aft er a previous
one lapsed at the end of July, is due to
expire on Oct. 3.
Realtor groups in Alabama and
Georgia were among those challenging
the moratorium.
The appellate court’s order sets the
stage for the Supreme Court to hear
arguments over whether the administration
overstepped its authority by
issuing the moratorium.
Hours aft er the order issued, the
realtor groups asked the Supreme
Court to issue an emergency order
lifting the moratorium, saying in
a court fi ling that “Congress never
gave the CDC the staggering amount
of power it claims.”
White House Press Secretary Jen
Psaki said in a statement that the Biden
administration is “pleased that the
circuit court joined the district court
in leaving the moratorium in place that
is keeping hard-pressed Americans in
their homes in areas of substantial or
high COVID-19 spread.”
Under heavy political pressure
from Biden’s fellow Democrats, his
administration reversed course on
Aug. 3 and issued a slightly narrower
eviction moratorium three days aft er
the prior one expired. Biden initially
had said that congressional action was
needed to renew the moratorium, but
his administration reversed course.
The current moratorium covers
nearly 92% of U.S. counties, but that
could change based on COVID-19
conditions.
The CDC fi rst issued a moratorium
in September 2020 aft er a prior one
approved by Congress expired, with
agency officials saying the policy
was needed to combat the spread of
COVID-19 and prevent homelessness
during the pandemic.
