Inside the Equal Access to Justice Act

- Environmental Litigation and the Crippling Battle over America's Lands, Endangered Species, and Critical Habitats

Om Inside the Equal Access to Justice Act

In this book, Lowell E. Baier, one of AmericaΓÇÖs preeminent experts on environmental litigation, chronicles the century-long story of AmericasΓÇÖ resources management, focusing on litigations, citizen suit provisions, and attorneysΓÇÖ fees. He provides the first book-length comprehensive examination of the little-known Equal Access to Justice Act (EAJA) and its role in environmental litigation. Originally intended to support veterans, the disabled and small business, the EAJA, Baier argues, now paralyzes AmericaΓÇÖs public land management agencies. Baier introduces readers to the history of EAJA, examines the many beneficiaries of the law, describes in depth 20 of the most prominent litigious environmental groups in America, and recommends carefully tailored amendments to the EAJA to correct environmental abuses of the law while protecting legitimate interests. Inside the Equal Access to Justice Act will be a valuable resource for the environmental legal community, environmentalists, practitioners at all levels of government, and all readers interested in environmental policy and the rise of the administrative state.
