was deprived her property interest in her job without due process of law and the cause of all constitutional claims that the decision to remove her from a position argument you argued that in your brief correct yes and you laid out that why you think that the there's an appointments clause breach here and if we had to determine if there were jurisdiction we would need to determine whether there was a carb a constitutional claim and if we were to determine that there's no suggestion that she's a principal officer why couldn't we determine as to the separation of you have a congressional grant by statute to the united states bankruptcy trustee to serve a fixed term for five years their in the course of doing that even if it's not a view it is some kind of collateral estoppel they lay out their rationale that directly implicates your claims but i guess you just disagree with  back to make this point in the speak about the separation of powers and the point i'd like to make is that the statute here's the bank u s trustee a five year ter under the statute is extant exercising power delegated to him by congress determined that there should be a united states trustee and in order to create a mechanism to appoint the trustee because congress then the point in theory offices even though it's given that constitutional powers under the constitution it delegates the department here to do so there's a different there's a fundamental difference having trouble understanding with the foundation for the separation of powers argument is we have a statute that has now been it was amended some time ago that kind of just sets out there the attorney general's power in pretty naked terms like it or not but what what what is what where does that violate the separation of powers statute section five if you want to be term protection that's given to the trustee is taken away and the trustee now at the pleasure of the attorney general or it will and so what the attorney general has adroitly done by the congress said that there's the trustees are i think quote subject to removal by the attorney general in quotes so it is a pretty broad i mean what you would like us to do is to have a  a constitutional issue in this case whether i understand the issue i'm having trouble finding the source the legal source to impute those words and the statute w and given the importance of the importance of the united states trust me to the operation of the bankruptcy system him point to the united states bankruptcy trustee not be removed for political purposes due to change presidents and mr so let me ask you this let's say the attorney general says you know we really administratively i kind of like to reorganize things and i think some of these just tricks don't really need a whole trustee and we're going to have kind of cr trustees so you're gone and i'm going to have this woman cover two districts because administrative leave this makes more sense to me so trustee number one is removed without be permitted under your view the snatch you certainly would be permitted because the and i don't like him and i don't like her so out that that would be ok that my case may come up but i'm just asking would that be ok under your construction of the statue i don't care he said it would for that it may very well be cut off because it's arbitrary and capricious because he's not giving pain a reason is beginning because the wind was blowing bad that day and i don't like this place because she got a lot here and some of us got breaks that might be a bad downsizing and pointed out the distinction and i'm giving you the devil's choice of choosing between the two and if i remove somebody if i'm the administration from the opposite party aren't used to the same thing well when you say that you doing for do to change the presidential help me out on this in that case congress said yes only the president in that discusses the president you could only you can only remove people from their statutory term for these reason on the jurisdictional issue let me just be candid unclear about we have clearly changed our position here they support and everything in the sprinkler in the whitman case which is also from the court of the united states how in the ninth circuit even though we've not necessarily taken on webster directly with this panel be able to come to the conclusion you are which is you need a colorable claim to have jurisdiction and there isn't one when we've said or appeared to say that there is a jurisdiction in the constitutional round well i think the court is in a bit of a difficult position but i think that you can just decide it based on the fact that there is no colorful constitutional claim here you don't have to reach the broader question if she did have a colorable constitutional claim with the district court have jurisdiction the first circuit in a case i believe cited a breeze called pathway versus apartment of veterans affairs  regulatory scheme that doesn't explicitly exclude colorable constitutional claims does are not under webster so if she is if she had made a claim that her  with the claims she makes i mean there is a certain appeal and you get a five year term like now you see it now you don't is the problem because you have it until you don't have so what why even have a five year term well i think that the us trustee should serve for five years and at the end of the five years a decision about reappointment could be made but they also explicitly included an unfettered removal  mistakenly is reading would have this court read in some type of limitation on that removal authority and five anyone see that congress not only didn't put there but took out of a previous version of the statute congress clearly knows during that term yes it does in a way make the five year term not as meaningful as it would if you had a removal only for cost provision but again congress knows how to make a five year term where you can only be removed for cause of limitation back in apparently not a full cause limitation an even more specific limitation of not being removed from political reality as i understood the argument is all the way for us to continue  be with the fact that the attorney general that hasn't been argued and that hasn't been found i think once it's constitutional for the attorney general to make the appointment then it's certainly constitutional for congress to give them remove both authority and to delineate that removal authority however they want to if would be big huge positions then i mean i just basically were if that's the way the attorney general wants to exercise his or her discretion there's no there's been no argument that there's been widespread removals to work a little reasons like  has created the structure that could lead to if they want to change it yes that's congress's responsibility not theirs quirks to read and the limitation that congress chose not to put there so the only we're the only limitations on the attorney certainly could pursue that avenue of title seven doesn't cover all employees in in the federal government i believe there are some portions that are excluded and covered by other statutes but yes to the extent there is another statutory remedy available to her like title seven she would have a remedy there and that would necessarily limited tourney generals discretion but no other reason that wasn't put in either of five eighty one floor and some other statute that covers the positions of u s trustees that's correct and there's no
