RS 999.24 - Revocation A.(1) Within thirty days after the issuance of a written determination and order by an administrative law judge or an issuing agency that the license or permit of a holder should be suspended, and a recommendation to the courts that such license or permit should be revoked, the enforcing authority shall file a petition in the Nineteenth Judicial District Court requesting such judge or court to uphold the determination of such issuing agency and order the revocation of the license or permit. A copy of the written determination and order of the administrative law judge or the issuing agency and a certified transcript of all proceedings had, if any, shall be filed with the court at the same time as the petition of the enforcing authority. (2) The holder of the license or permit that has been ordered suspended may also file a petition requesting that the order of the administrative law judge or the issuing agency be set aside at any time after it is issued. B.(1) After or in conjunction with the filing of a petition as provided for in Subsection A of this Section, the holder of the license or permit that has been ordered suspended may file an application with the court with supporting affidavits requesting the court to make an initial determination as to whether the suspension of the license or permit by the administrative law judge or the issuing agency should be upheld. (2) The court shall assign a hearing on the application for the initial determination not less than two nor more than ten days after the filing of such application, in open court or in chambers. (3) The court shall review the written determination and order of the administrative law judge or issuing agency, any affidavits which were filed with the application, and the transcript of the proceedings, if any. (4) If the court upon a review of such documents and consideration of the issues involved finds both that it is not probable that the order of the administrative law judge or the issuing agency will be upheld and that the suspension of the license or permit will result in irreparable injury, loss, or damage to the holder of the license or permit, the court shall issue an order enjoining the suspension until it renders a final judgment on the matter. C.(1) Except for the procedure as provided in Subsection B of this Section, all of the cases provided for in this Section shall be tried in the same manner as civil cases and shall be heard and determined as speedily as possible. (2) If the court finds that the action of the administrative law judge or the issuing agency is in accordance with the facts and law, the court shall render a judgment upholding the order of the administrative law judge or the issuing agency and revoking the license or permit of the holder. If not, the court shall either dismiss the order of the administrative law judge or the issuing agency and enjoin the suspension of the license or permit, or it shall remand the case to the administrative law judge or the issuing agency for further proceedings either with or without maintaining the suspension of the license or permit.
