CHAPTER 158 - ORDERS OF FEDERAL AGENCIES; REVIEW

-HEAD-

Sec. 2347. Petitions to review; proceedings

-STATUTE-

(a) Unless determined on a motion to dismiss, petitions to review

orders reviewable under this chapter are heard in the court of

appeals on the record of the pleadings, evidence adduced, and

proceedings before the agency, when the agency has held a hearing

whether or not required to do so by law.

(b) When the agency has not held a hearing before taking the

action of which review is sought by the petition, the court of

appeals shall determine whether a hearing is required by law. After

that determination, the court shall -

(1) remand the proceedings to the agency to hold a hearing,

when a hearing is required by law;

(2) pass on the issues presented, when a hearing is not

required by law and it appears from the pleadings and affidavits

filed by the parties that no genuine issue of material fact is

presented; or

(3) transfer the proceedings to a district court for the

district in which the petitioner resides or has its principal

office for a hearing and determination as if the proceedings were

originally initiated in the district court, when a hearing is not

required by law and a genuine issue of material fact is

presented. The procedure in these cases in the district court is

governed by the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.

(c) If a party to a proceeding to review applies to the court of

appeals in which the proceeding is pending for leave to adduce

additional evidence and shows to the satisfaction of the court that

-

(1) the additional evidence is material; and

(2) there were reasonable grounds for failure to adduce the

evidence before the agency;

the court may order the additional evidence and any counterevidence

the opposite party desires to offer to be taken by the agency. The

agency may modify its findings of fact, or make new findings, by

reason of the additional evidence so taken, and may modify or set

aside its order, and shall file in the court the additional

CHAPTER 158 - ORDERS OF FEDERAL AGENCIES; REVIEW

-HEAD-

Sec. 2349. Jurisdiction of the proceeding

-STATUTE-

(a) The court of appeals has jurisdiction of the proceeding on

the filing and service of a petition to review. The court of

appeals in which the record on review is filed, on the filing, has

jurisdiction to vacate stay orders or interlocutory injunctions

previously granted by any court, and has exclusive jurisdiction to

make and enter, on the petition, evidence, and proceedings set

forth in the record on review, a judgment determining the validity

of, and enjoining, setting aside, or suspending, in whole or in

part, the order of the agency.

(b) The filing of the petition to review does not of itself stay

or suspend the operation of the order of the agency, but the court

of appeals in its discretion may restrain or suspend, in whole or

in part, the operation of the order pending the final hearing and

determination of the petition. When the petitioner makes

application for an interlocutory injunction restraining or

suspending the enforcement, operation, or execution of, or setting

aside, in whole or in part, any order reviewable under this

chapter, at least 5 days' notice of the hearing thereon shall be

given to the agency and to the Attorney General. In a case in which

irreparable damage would otherwise result to the petitioner, the

court of appeals may, on hearing, after reasonable notice to the

agency and to the Attorney General, order a temporary stay or

suspension, in whole or in part, of the operation of the order of

the agency for not more than 60 days from the date of the order

pending the hearing on the application for the interlocutory

injunction, in which case the order of the court of appeals shall

contain a specific finding, based on evidence submitted to the

court of appeals, and identified by reference thereto, that

irreparable damage would result to the petitioner and specifying

the nature of the damage. The court of appeals, at the time of

hearing the application for an interlocutory injunction, on a like

finding, may continue the temporary stay or suspension, in whole or

in part, until decision on the application.
