Dick Cheney was the named defendant in this landmark Supreme Court case arising from his refusal to disclose the members and activities of his Energy Task Force. Sierra Club and Judicial Watch sued for disclosure under the Federal Advisory Committee Act. The Court ruled 7-2 in Cheney favor on June 24, 2004. Justice Scalia refused to recuse himself despite having gone duck hunting with Cheney three weeks after the Court agreed to hear the case.
