Can agency do class deviation to not follow a statute?

I am not aware of, and could not find, any court decision dealing with a case in which an agency knowingly issued a class deviation that was contrary to statute. That may be because FAR 1.402 states:

Quote

Unless precluded by law, executive order, or regulation, deviations from the FAR may be granted as specified in this subpart when necessary to meet the specific needs and requirements of each agency. 

Emphasis added.

Statute trumps regulation.
