Judicial review -- Exhaustion of administrative remedies -- Petition for judicial review

(1) A party aggrieved may obtain judicial review of final agency action, as described in Section 63G-4-403, except in actions where judicial review is expressly prohibited by statute. (2) A party may seek judicial review only after exhausting all administrative remedies available, except that: (a) a party seeking judicial review need not exhaust administrative remedies if this chapter or any other statute states that exhaustion is not required; (b) the court may relieve a party seeking judicial review of the requirement to exhaust any or all administrative remedies if: (i) the administrative remedies are inadequate; or (ii) exhaustion of remedies would result in irreparable harm disproportionate to the public benefit derived from requiring exhaustion. (3) (a) Except as provided in Subsection (3)(c), a party shall file a petition for judicial review of final agency action within 30 days after the day on which the order: (i) constituting the final agency action is issued; or (ii) is considered to have been issued under Subsection 63G-4-302(3)(b). (b) The petition shall: (i) name the agency and all other appropriate parties as respondents; and (ii) meet the form requirements specified in this chapter. (c) If a party files a petition for judicial review of a final agency action resulting from a formal adjudicative proceeding within the 30-day time period described in Subsection (3)(a), any other party to the action may file a petition for judicial review if the petition is filed within the time period permitted for a cross petition under Rule 14 of the Utah Rules of Appellate Procedure.
