Summary

A company involved in a proceeding under sections 4581 or 4585 can ask the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit to review a final order. The company must file a written petition within 30 days after the order is served. The court clerk will send the petition to the Director, who must file the case record with the court under 28 U.S.C. 2112. When the Director files the record, the court has exclusive authority (except as provided in the last sentence of section 4582(b)(2)) to confirm, change, end, or cancel the Director’s order. The court’s review follows chapter 7 of title 5. The court may order payment of penalties the Director imposed. Asking for review does not automatically stop the Director’s order unless the court orders a stay.
