Summary

Federal departments and agencies must allow court review of actions they take under section 1682 the same way courts review similar agency actions. If an agency ends or refuses financial help because someone failed to follow the rules in section 1682, any person harmed — including a State, local government, or their agencies — can ask a court to review that decision under the procedures in chapter 7 of title 5. Such decisions cannot be treated as beyond court review under section 701 of that title.
