HB5815

Administrative procedure: judicial review; judicial review of administrative rules; modify. Amends sec. 61 of 1969 PA 306 (MCL 24.261).

Chamber Passed·6/9/26

Modifies judicial review of administrative rules in Michigan.

This bill amends the judicial review process for administrative rules in Michigan. It establishes a rebuttable presumption that a rule was properly adopted, filed, and made available for public inspection. The courts are required to take judicial notice of effective rules and exercise independent judgment in determining if an agency acted within its statutory authority, without deferring to the agency's interpretation of ambiguous statutes.
