§ 627.801 - Procedures for filing request for hearing.
-
(a) Within 21 days of receipt of a final determination imposing a sanction or corrective action or denying financial assistance, the applicant, the recipient, the SDA, the SSG, or other subrecipient, or a vendor against which the Grant Officer has imposed a sanction or corrective action may appeal the Grant Officer's determination to the OALJ. A request for a hearing shall be transmitted by certified mail, return receipt requested, to the Chief Administrative Law Judge, U.S. Department of Labor, 800 K Street, NW., Suite 400, Washington, DC 20001, with one copy to the departmental official who issued the determination.
(b) The 21-day filing requirement in paragraph (a) of this section is jurisdictional. Failure to timely request a hearing acts as a waiver of the right to hearing.
(c) A request for a hearing under this section shall state specifically those issues of the final determination upon which review is requested. Those provisions of the final determination not specified for review, or the entire final determination when no hearing has been requested within the 21 days, shall be considered resolved and not subject to further review. Only alleged violations of the Act, regulations promulgated thereunder, grant or other agreement under the Act fairly raised in the determination and the request for hearing are subject to review.
(d) The procedures set forth in this subpart apply in the case of a complainant who has not had a dispute adjudicated under the alternative dispute resolution process set forth in § 627.805 of this part within 60 days, except that the request for hearing before the OALJ must be filed within 15 days of the conclusion of the 60-day period. In addition to including the final determination upon which review is requested, the complainant shall include a copy of any Stipulation of Facts and a brief summary of proceedings.
