    Abstract

    The hiring and firing of patent judges and directors of federal agencies: it's somewhat less than gripping stuff. But this year, these two seemingly mundane controversies provided a chance for the Roberts Court to build on a theory of a core concept of the U.S. Constitution-the separation of powers-gradually being unveiled by the Court over the last few years. In June 2021, the Supreme Court issued a pair of decisions in Collins v. Yellen, concerning the removal of the heads of federal agencies, and U.S. v. Arthrex, on the appointment of administrative patent judges, or APJs.
