LAW - 5213 Administrative Law

(3 hours)

Administrative Law addresses the powers of and limitations on administrative agencies, which affect private interests through actions such as making rules and adjudicating cases. This course does not address the substantive law that agencies produce through their rule-making power; those subjects are treated in specific substantive courses such as Labor Law, Environmental Law, Securities, and so forth. Because of the number and range of federal and state agencies, the Administrative Law course seeks to establish a general frame-work for all agencies. Constitutional principles are examined and applied to administrative problems to ensure that persons affected at various stages of administrative action are protected from arbitrary and unfair treatment. The general scope of the course includes: why administrative agencies are created; why the delegation of authority to agencies is valid under the Constitution; judicial control of agencies, including the Administrative Procedures Act, judicial review, standing, and exhaustion of administrative remedies; and due process requirements
