2014 article eluding to- “ "Sue and Settle" refers to when a federal agency agrees to a settlement agreement, in a lawsuit from special interest groups, to create priorities and rules outside of the normal rulemaking process. The agency intentionally relinquishes statutory discretion by committing to timelines and priorities that often realign agency duties. These settlement agreements are negotiated behind closed doors with no participation from the public or affected parties.”

The settlement agreements are negotiated between aligned parties. It's not like there is any argument. "Ban fireplaces?! Sure. You want wood stoves in there? Okay. How about pellet stoves?" I had a summer job long ago working for an astute, old engineer. He delegated all of the regulatory reports to me pointing out the tiny section for reporting emissions from wood burning. "They are going to outlaw fireplaces and wood stoves. This is how it starts." That was 1996. Here we are!
