Administrative Law

LAW 453-01	Administrative Law	3 credits
Administrative law establishes the legal controls over the operation of government and hence it relates to almost every legal practice, from security regulation to social programs to criminal justice. Indeed, administrative law is essential to justice in a modern society because administrative agencies generate most of the law that actually affects our lives and because administrative agencies adjudicate far more disputes than the traditional judiciary. This course is an introductory examination of the rules and procedures governing agency decisionmaking. It explores (1) how agencies make policy and adjudicate individual disputes and (2) how businesses, interest groups, and citizens challenge agency policymaking in court.
