Summary

You can ask the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit to review a final order in a case under sections 4631, 4513b, 4636, or 4636a by filing a written petition within 30 days after the order is served. The court clerk will send a copy to the Director, and the Director must file the case record in court under section 2112 of title 28. Once the petition and record are filed, that court (except as the last sentence of section 4633(b)(2) allows) has exclusive authority to uphold, change, end, or set aside the Director’s order. The review follows chapter 7 of title 5. The court can order payment of any penalty the Director imposed. Filing for review does not automatically pause the Director’s order unless the court specifically orders a pause.
