Supreme Court Takes Next Step Toward Resolving National Bank Act Preemption Split, Inviting Solicitor General’s Views In Cantero, Conti And Kivett
The Supreme Court yesterday took an important step toward resolving the growing uncertainty over the scope of National Bank Act preemption. In an order issued October 5, the Court invited the Solicitor General to file briefs expressing the views of the United States in three cases involving state laws requiring national banks to pay interest on mortgage escrow accounts: Cantero v. Bank of America, N.A., No. 25-1313; Citizens Bank, N.A. v. Conti, No. 25-1004; and Flagstar Bank, N.A. v. Kivett, No. 25-1350.
