30 Administrative Law
31 What is administrative law? Branch of law governing the creation and operation of administrative agencies. 1. Regulations 2. Agency adjudications Administrative law makes up a huge portion of the law
32 Administrative law Legislative Hearings/ adjudications = quasi-judicial Judicial Regulations = quasi-legislative Executive
33 Origin of agency s authority Legislature passes a law, giving the broad strokes and enabling a government agency to implement the law To implement the legislature s intent, the agency typically will have to do 2 things: 1. Promulgate regulations that provide more detailed rules & establish oversight processes; 2. Enforce the law through those processes, including administrative hearings/adjudications
34 Regulations
35 Process of promulgating regulations The enabling legislation instructing agency to promulgate regulations session law or statutory code Strict rules about what the agency has to do, simplified: 1. Agency drafts & publishes proposed regulations in the Federal Register (Fed. Reg. or F.R.) 2. Opportunity for public comment 3. Agency reviews comments, drafts & publishes final version in Fed. Reg. 4. Codify the final regulations in the Code of Federal Regulations (C.F.R.)
36
37
38
39 Guidance documents Some agencies put out informal documents that lay out current thinking on issues Avoids strict requirements for promulgating regulations Not legally binding, but can be good indicator of an agency s position May not be formally published look on agency s website
40 Agency Adjudications
41 Administrative adjudications Differ widely among agencies Informal / Formal Bind only parties / Precedential effect Whether and how they re published Agency s website is often a good place to start Westlaw, Lexis, Bloomberg & other specialty databases have selected agency adjudications HeinOnline has historical agency materials
42
43 Formal adjudications Look a lot like court cases Agency hearing (similar to trial) Conducted by administrative law judge (ALJ) (similar to trial court judge) Can be appealed up to a higher authority within the agency Once administrative remedies are exhausted, often can file suit in court
44 Informal adjudications Advice letters Attorney general opinions Advisory guidance
