Michigan HB5816 amends administrative procedure guidelines to allow de novo review during administrative law hearings.

Michigan HB5816 amends sections 79 and 106 of 1969 PA 306 to allow de novo review during administrative law hearings. This means that hearings must be conducted impartially, and the presiding officers must conduct the review from scratch, without deferring to the agency's decision. The bill also outlines conditions under which a court may set aside an agency's decision, including violations of the constitution or statutes, and other substantial errors.
