- Possible outcomes from the Supreme Court and the effect on companies and individuals litigating before the SEC and CFPB
- Potential impacts of the case moving forward, including:

- Due process, equal protection, and separation of powers issues inherent to the CFPB's and SEC's administrative forums
- Pros and cons of administrative and federal forums
