Delegation of Legislative Power

Satterlee v. Lumberman's Mutual Casualty Company [12/12/05] 2005 MTWCC 55 Section 39-71-710, MCA, which provides that PTD benefits terminate upon an individual’s receiving social security retirement benefits or eligibility for social security retirement benefits, does not unlawfully delegate legislative power to the federal government. The Legislature may lawfully make a law which delegates a power to determine some fact or state of things upon which the law makes, or intends to make, its own actions depend.
