On June 26, 2017, the U.S. Supreme Court agreed to review whether the Dodd-Frank Act’s whistleblower anti-retaliation provisions protect employees who only complain internally to their employer, but do not complain directly to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. In doing so, the Court may resolve a more than year old split among the circuit courts over what actions an employee must take in order to be considered a “whistleblower” for the purposes of Dodd-Frank’s whistleblower protections.
