    Rosalie Whiley v. Hon. Rick Scott

    		 9:00

    Ms. Whiley is challenging an executive order signed by Gov. Rick Scott that requires additional procedures for rule-making by state agencies under the governor's authority. She argues the governor has overstepped his constitutional authority by unilaterally changing laws passed by the Legislature dealing with rule-making. Governor Scott defends his order, arguing that it is well within the limits of the constitutional authority he has as Florida's "supreme executive power" and "chief administrative officer."
