500.1629 Judicial review; court order.

Sec. 1629.

(1) A person aggrieved by a final order, decision, finding, ruling, action, or inaction provided for under this chapter may seek judicial review as provided in section 244.

(2) To the extent that the order or final determination of the commissioner is affirmed, the court shall issue its own order commanding obedience to the terms of the commissioner's order or final determination. If either party applies to the court for leave to produce additional evidence, and shows to the satisfaction of the court that the additional evidence is material and that there were reasonable grounds for the failure to produce the evidence in the proceeding before the commissioner, the court may order the additional evidence to be taken before the commissioner and to be produced in a hearing in the manner and upon the terms and conditions the court considers proper. The commissioner may modify the findings of fact or make new findings by reason of the additional evidence taken and shall file the modified or new findings with a recommendation, if any, for the modification or setting aside of the original order or final determination, with the return of the additional evidence.

(3) An order issued by the commissioner under section 1627 shall become final upon the expiration of the time allowed for filing a petition for review if no petition has been duly filed within that time, except that the commissioner may thereafter modify or set aside the order to the extent provided in section 1627 or upon the final decision of the court if the court directs that the order of the commissioner be affirmed or the petition for review dismissed.

(4) An order of the commissioner under this chapter or an enforcement order of a court does not relieve or absolve any person affected by the order from liability under any other laws of this state.
