Building momentum to advance citizen evidence in policymaking

Interview with Diakalia Sanogo from IDRC. Discourse on the promotion of evidence in policy

Abstract

This study aims to investigate the impact of presidential executive orders on the outcomes of second-tier appealed cases in Washington. Specifically, we examine the antimonopoly effect of executive orders on such cases, as antitrust enforcement has been a major policy agenda for many presidents. Using a dataset of over 1,000 cases from 1990 to 2020, we apply logistic regression models to assess the likelihood of a case being overturned or upheld based on whether it involves antitrust issues and whether the president has issued an executive order related to antitrust during the same year. Our findings suggest that executive orders related to antitrust have a significant and positive effect on the likelihood of cases being overturned in favor of the plaintiff. Furthermore, this effect is more pronounced for cases that involve mergers and acquisitions, as well as cases that are appealed to the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals. We discuss the implications of our findings for antitrust policy and the role of executive power in shaping judicial outcomes.
