Chapter 462 - OREGON RACING COMMISSION
Division 130 - PROHIBITED CONDUCT AND HEARING PROCEDURES
Section 462-130-0060 - Commission Hearing
The commission may initiate a formal hearing on its own motion, or shall have a formal hearing held as a result of receipt of an appeal as provided in OAR 462-130-0050 or upon referral from the stewards. Commission hearings shall be conducted by an administrative law judge from the Office of Administrative Hearings under ORS 183 (the Oregon Administrative Procedures Act). Commission hearings conducted by the Office of Administrative Hearings will be de novo, which means the commission will consider anew all evidence and charges against the licensee. Subject to objections which may be made at the hearing, the commission may incorporate all or part of the stewards' record into its own record. If the commission concludes that a violation occurred, it may order any appropriate penalty or sanction, including but not limited to warning, letter of reprimand, probation, fine, suspension, license revocation, exclusion, or any combination. Final orders of the commission may be appealed to the Oregon Court of Appeals as provided in ORS 183.480.
