Health, 152 Wn. App. 156, 216 P.3d 1039 (2009), Division I concluding that the presiding officer should have excluded evidence gathered under a warrantless inspection and seizure; Dodge City Saloon v. Wash. State Liquor Control Comm’n, 168 Wn. App. 388, 288 P.3d 343 (2012), Division II citing Seymour with approval). Division III has not yet considered applying the exclusionary rule to administrative proceedings.
Oregon courts have not excluded evidence from administrative proceedings when that evidence was obtained in violation of the Oregon Constitution (TMM v. Lake Oswego School Dist., 198 Ore. App. 572, 108 P.3d 1211 (2005)).
There are cases in both Oregon and Washington in which a court has suppressed evidence in a civil or criminal proceeding when that evidence was obtained through an administrative search in violation of the state constitution.
In Washington, the Attorney General represents state agencies in administrative hearings. RCW 43. 10.040. Notwithstanding the statutory language, lawyers employed by some agencies sometimes represent those agencies in administrative hearings; e.g., child support hearings before the Office of Administrative Hearings, and Department of Revenue lawyers in “informal appeals” (RCW 82.03.140) before the Board of Tax Appeals.
In Oregon, agencies may be represented by the Attorney General in contested case hearings (ORS 183.452( 1)). Agencies may be represented by an officer or employee of the agency if 1) the Attorney General agrees to the representation and 2) the agency rule authorizes agency personnel to appear and represent the agency in the type of hearing.
In Oregon, a party other than the agency may appear and be represented by counsel or another representative, but the non-lawyer representative may do so only in compliance with ORS 183.457( 2). The Oregon statute also limits the agencies before which non-lawyer representatives may practice by describing those agencies in ORS 183.457( 1).

by order of the reviewing court.
where the licensee has made timely application for renewal in accordance with the rules of the agency, such license shall not be deemed to expire, despite any stated expiration date thereon, until the agency concerned has issued a formal order of grant or denial of such renewal.
In Oregon, the proponent of a fact or position in a contested case has the burden to present evidence to support that fact or position, ORS 183.450( 2), but judicial review of an order focuses on the standards of review in ORS 183.482( 7) and ( 8) without specifically imposing burdens on judicial review. In Washington, RCW 34.05.570( 1)(a) specifies the burden of demonstrating the invalidity of agency action is on the party asserting invalidity.
The Oregon and Washington APAs both provide the exclusive remedy. In Oregon, common law specifies the exclusivity rule; in Washington, the APA specifies the rule.
Oregon appellate courts have consistently held that the Oregon APA establishes a comprehensive pattern for the judicial review of administrative decisions. The APA statutes governing judicial review provide the sole and exclusive methods of obtaining judicial review (Bay River, Inc. v. Envtl. Quality Com., 26 Ore. App. 717, 720, 554 P.2d 620 (1976); School Dist. No. 48 v. Fair Dis. App. Bd., 14 Ore. App. 35, 512 P.2d 799 (1973); see also Wallace v. State ex rel. PERB, 245 Ore. App. 16, 263 P.3d 1020 (2011); Eppler v. Bd. of Tax Serv. Exam’rs, 189 Ore. App. 216, 219, 75 P.3d 900 (2003); Kerivan v. Water Res. Comm’n, 188 Ore. App. 491, 496, 72 P.3d 659 (2003)).
