Judicial Review

Federal agencies take many different actions, such as adopting rules and issuing orders in the adjudication of cases. In many cases, a person who objects to an agency action can ask a federal court to review it. Many statutes, including the Administrative Procedure Act, provide the legal framework for when and how courts review agency actions.

ACUS has adopted dozens of recommendations and produced many other resources to help the federal government manage judicial review of agency action. Helpful resources include the Federal Administrative Procedure Sourcebook, which includes a chapter on judicial review, and the book-length Sourcebook of Federal Judicial Review Statutes, which comprehensively surveys more than 650 statutory provisions that govern how federal courts review agency rules and orders.
