Judicial Review of Agency Action

Judicial review of agency action refers to the process where courts examine decisions made by government agencies to ensure they comply with the law and constitutional principles. If someone believes an agency acted improperly, they can challenge the agency's decision in court. The court will assess whether the agency followed proper procedures, acted within its legal authority, and made reasonable decisions based on the evidence. This process helps maintain accountability and ensures that agencies do not overstep their powers or violate individuals' rights.
