FEDERAL ELECTION COMMISSION 

[Notice 2023–12] 

Agency Procedure Regarding 

Litigation 

AGENCY: Federal Election Commission. 

ACTION: Agency procedure. 

SUMMARY: The Federal Election 

Commission is adopting a procedure 

governing its actions in litigation. 

DATES: Applicable on August 17, 2023. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Federal Election Campaign Act provides 

a cause of action for ‘‘any party 

aggrieved by an order of the 

Commission dismissing a complaint 

filed by such party . . . or by a failure 

of the Commission to act on such 

complaint.’’ 52 U.S.C. 30109(a)(8). The 

procedure in this notice applies to 

actions to be taken by the Commission 

and its Office of General Counsel in 

such cases. 

Whenever a suit is commenced 

against the Commission pursuant to 52 

U.S.C. 30109(a)(8), the Commission 

will, within forty-five (45) days of the 

service of such suit upon the 

Commission, vote in executive session, 

or by tally, as to whether it will defend 

the action. The certification of such 

vote, regardless of outcome, will be 

published on the Commission’s public 

website. Publication of the vote 

certification, subject to appropriate 

redactions, will be accomplished as 

quickly as practicable. The Office of 

General Counsel may not file any 

responsive pleading except upon the 

affirmative votes of four or more 

commissioners authorizing defense of 

the Commission pursuant to 52 U.S.C. 

30107(a)(6). 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in any 

case where the Commission does not 

agree, by four or more affirmative votes, 

to defend an action under 52 U.S.C. 

30109(a)(8) alleging a failure of the 

Commission to act, or where the lack of 

a quorum prevents Commission action, 

the Office of General Counsel will: 

1. Apprise the court that the 

Commission has not voted to defend the 

action; 

2. Inform the United States Assistant 

Attorney General for the Civil Division 

that the Commission has not voted to 

defend the action; and 

3. File, under seal, a copy of each vote 

certification, subject to appropriate 

redactions, concerning the underlying 

administrative complaint giving rise to 

the lawsuit. The Office of General 

Counsel will continue to file each such 

vote certification until the conclusion of 

the lawsuit. 

In addition to the foregoing, the Office 

of General Counsel will notify each 

respondent to any relevant Matters 

Under Review that a lawsuit has been 

filed and provide each such respondent 

with a copy of this notice. 

This notice represents a general 

statement announcing the general 

course of action that the Commission 

intends to follow. This agency 

procedure does not constitute an agency 

regulation requiring notice of proposed 

rulemaking, opportunities for public 

participation, prior publication, and 

delay in effective date under 5 U.S.C. 

553 of the Administrative Procedures 

Act (‘‘APA’’). The provisions of the 

Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 

605(b), which apply when notice and 

comment are required by the APA or 

another statute, are not applicable. 

Dated: August 14, 2023. 

On behalf of the Commission, 

Dara S. Lindenbaum, 

Chair, Federal Election Commission.
