Case Overview

The Rural Development Innovations Limited sued DOGE and Peter Marocco in his purported official capacities as acting Chair of the Board of the United States African Development Foundation over the termination of grants from USADF and dismantling of the foundation.


The Application

History

Plaintiff argues that DOGE and acting Chair Marocco lacked statutory authority to terminate USADF grants and dismantle the foundation, and that the agency failed to follow required notice-and-comment or other procedural safeguards before taking these actions.

The Conclusion

Case remains active before Judge Richard J. Leon in D.C. District Court as of May 2025, with judicial review pending on whether the executive action exceeded statutory authority and violated administrative procedure requirements.
