2015 SESSION
SB 928 Administrative Process Act; default by nonappearing party.
Introduced by: John S. Edwards | all patrons ... notes | add to my profiles
SUMMARY AS PASSED: (all summaries)
Virginia Administrative Process Act; default by nonappearing party. Establishes a mechanism to more efficiently dispose of contested matters under the Virginia Administrative Process Act where the defendant in an administrative proceeding fails to appear at a hearing without a valid excuse. Currently, unless an agency's enabling statute provides differently, there is no provision for allowing an agency to enter a default order in a case in which the defendant fails to appear at a hearing. The bill's provisions do not apply to any administrative hearings process that is governed by § 32.1-325.1 relating to provider appeals. This bill is a recommendation of the Virginia Code Commission.
