In this task, you will be shown a prompt from a judicial decision and multiple holding statements derived from citations following text in a legal decision. Holdings represent the governing legal rule when the law is applied to a particular set of facts. There are five answer choices for each citing text. The correct answer is the holding statement that corresponds to the citing text. The four incorrect answers are other holding statements. You should find the correct option. There is a <HOLDING> token in the position of the citing text prompt where the holding statement was extracted.

Q: the interpretation of the statute has clearly been vested by a provision of law in the agency's discretion. See Iowa Code 17A.19(10)(c), (l). If the agency has been clearly vested with interpretive authority, we generally defer to the agency's interpretation, and may grant relief only if the agency's interpretation is "irrational, illogical, or wholly unjustifiable." Id. 17A.19(10)(i). If the agency has not been clearly vested with discretion to interpret the statute, "we are free to substitute our judgment de novo for the agency's interpretation and determine if the interpretation is erroneous." Auen v. Alcoholic Beverages Div., 679 N.W.2d 586, 589-90 (Iowa 2004) (citing Iowa Code 17A.19(10)(e)). The legislature has delegated broad authority to 643 N.W.2d 205, 207 (Iowa 2002) (<HOLDING>).

Q: that placed a forty-five day time limit on the administrator's decision to grant or deny a license. See Redner, 29 F.3d at 1500. In the event the administrator exceeded the forty-five day time limit, the ordinance stated that "the applicant may be permitted to begin operating the establishment for which a license is sought," unless and until the County Administrator notifies the applicant of a denial of the application." See id. at 1500-01 (citation omitted). We held that the ordinance was unconstitutional on its face because its use of the word "may" rather than "shall" allowed the individuals responsible for enforcing the ordinance to suppress the protected expression for an indefinite time period prior to any action on their part or any judicial determination. See id. at 1501 (<HOLDING>). In Lady J. Lingerie, we examined the

Q: completeness, and reliability of any information or testimony provided, by the defendant; (3) the nature and extent of the defendant's assistance; (4) any injury suffered, or any danger or risk of injury to the defendant or his family resulting from his assistance; and (5) the timeliness' of the defendant's assistance. USSG 5K1.1. 4 . When a statutory minimum sentence is involved in the case, a 5K1.1 motion is less defendant-friendly than a 3553(e) motion. A 3553(e) motion allows the district court to depart below both the statutory minimum sentence and the low-end of the Guideline range. However, a 5K1.1 motion does not allow the court to depart below the statutory minimum sentence. Cf. Melendez v. United States, 518 U.S. 120, 129-31, 116 S.Ct. 2057, 135 L.Ed.2d 427 (1996) (<HOLDING>). 5 . We note that the government does not
