The Energy Department delays new rules for its internal appeals court

The US Department of Energy is delaying new rules for its internal appeals court. This means the old rules will stay in place for now.

The Energy Department has an internal court that handles disputes, like those over energy regulations or contracts. Changing the rules for this court can affect how quickly and fairly these cases are resolved. A delay means that any intended improvements or clarifications to the appeals process will not take effect as planned.
