/us/cfr/t39/s§ 966.11·A research copy — for the controlling text, always check the official state or federal source. Not legal advice.
The initial or tentative decision will become the final agency decision thirty
(30)days after its issuance unless, before the expiration of that time, a party files an appeal with the Judicial Officer, or the Judicial Officer, in his or her sole discretion, elects to conduct a review of the decision on his or her own initiative. During such review or appeal consideration, the Judicial Officer will accept all findings of fact in the original decision unless clearly erroneous. If following appeal or review, the Judicial Officer affirms the original decision, that decision becomes the final agency decision with no further right of appeal within the agency. \[77 FR 65106, Oct. 25, 2012\]
