Chamber Passed·6/9/26

Allows de novo review during administrative law hearings in Michigan.

This bill amends Michigan's Administrative Procedure Act to allow de novo review during administrative law hearings. It specifies that hearings must be conducted impartially, with presiding officers conducting the review de novo. The court may affirm, reverse, or modify the agency's decision or order, or remand the case for further proceedings. The bill also allows for the disqualification of presiding officers based on personal bias or disqualification.
