Zwick v. United States of America Small Business Administration

What this case is about

The plaintiff is suing the U.S. Small Business Administration, arguing that the agency acted improperly under the Administrative Procedure Act. The lawsuit challenges a decision or policy made by the SBA, alleging that the agency either exceeded its authority, failed to follow proper rulemaking procedures, or made an arbitrary and capricious decision that harmed the plaintiff and others in similar situations. While specific details of the complaint are limited, cases of this type typically involve small business owners or loan applicants who believe they were wrongfully denied benefits, loans, or relief programs administered by the SBA. The proposed class likely consists of individuals or businesses who were similarly affected by the same agency action or policy that the plaintiff is contesting.
