Vizio, Inc. v. Klee

摘要

The viability of VIZIO's claim hinges on our recognizing a claim under the dormant Commerce Clause not acknowledged by any court. VIZIO has failed to convince us that its claim should proceed under a variety of theories, old and new. In sum, we: 1) decline to extend the extraterritoriality doctrine in such a way as to prohibit laws that merely consider out-of-state activity, 2) do not apply the user fee analysis to VIZIO's case, and 3) find no burden on interstate commerce that is clearly excessive to the considerable public benefits conferred by Connecticut's E-Waste Law. As a result, VIZIO's suit cannot proceed.
