LAC 33:V.625. May the decision to approve or deny my RAP application be administratively appealed?

A. You may request an administrative hearing on a decision by the administrative authority to grant or deny your RAP application, under R.S. 30:2024. If the secretary does not grant your hearing request within 30 days of filing, you are entitled to file an application for de novo review of the secretary’s action in the Nineteenth Judicial District Court. B. An aggrieved person [as defined in R.S. 30:2004 (17)] may appeal a final decision on your RAP to the Nineteenth Judicial District Court, under R.S. 30:2050.21. Such an appeal would not suspend the effectiveness of the RAP, if one is issued. However, the secretary may grant, or the court may order, a stay of the RAP decision.
