LAWS OF MARYLAND

(B) RIGHT TO ADMINISTRATIVE HEARING.

A PERSON WHO IS AGGRIEVED BY AN ORDER ISSUED UNDER THIS
SUBTITLE MAY OBTAIN A HEARING FROM THE DEPARTMENT BY MAKING A
WRITTEN REQUEST WITHIN 10 DAYS AFTER SERVICE OF THE ORDER.

(C) RIGHT TO JUDICIAL REVIEW.

A PERSON WHO IS DISSATISFIED WITH A FINAL ORDER ISSUED OR A
REGULATION ADOPTED UNDER THIS SUBTITLE MAY PETITION OR APPEAL TO
THE CIRCUIT COURT.

UNDER THE ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURE ACT; AND

(2) IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURE
ACT.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is transferred from former HE
§ 9-224 without revision. The Department contends
that this section is superseded by the Administrative
Procedure Act, because of the inconsistencies between
its administrative practice and the provisions of this
section. Nonetheless, there are substantive
differences between the rights and procedures under
this section and the Administrative Procedure Act.
Therefore, this section is transferred, in unrevised
form, so that the General Assembly may consider
whether it intended to abrogate this section by
enacting the Administrative Procedure Act.
