Judicial review

Any person dissatisfied with the action of the board in refusing his application, or suspending or revoking his certificate, or any other action of the board, may appeal the action of the board by filing a petition within thirty days thereafter in the district court in the parish where the person resides or in the Nineteenth Judicial District Court, and such court is vested with jurisdiction, and it shall be the duty of the court to set the matter for hearing upon ten-days written notice to the board and the attorney representing the board. The court in which the petition of appeal is filed shall determine whether or not a cancellation or suspension of a certificate shall be abated until the hearing shall have been consummated with final judgment thereon, or whether any other action of the board should be suspended pending hearing. Upon determination, the court shall then enter its order accordingly, such order being operative when served upon the board. The court shall also provide the attorney representing the board with a copy of the petition and order. The board shall be represented in such appeals by the district attorney of the parish or the attorney general, or any of their respective assistants. The board shall initially determine all facts, but the court upon appeal shall set aside the determination of the board if the board's determination: (1) Is not based upon substantial evidence upon the entire record; (2) Is arbitrary or capricious; (3) Is in violation of statutory requirements; or (4) Was made without affording to the licensee or the applicant due process of law.
