Board Decisions

One of the functions of the Board is to serve as an appellate body that reviews hearing officer decisions, if those decisions are appealed by a party to the hearing. Upon review of the record and (sometimes) oral arguments by the parties, the Board issues a reasoned, written opinion. The Board may affirm, reverse, or remand a case or issue to the hearing officer for further proceedings. Board rulings are precedent setting in that hearing officers are guided by the Board’s interpretation of the law when issuing decisions. The Board has discretion to publish its decisions in the public record.
