(a) Judicial review by the superior court of a final administrative decision may be had by a party to the appeal under AS 43.05.405 - 43.05.499 by filing a notice of appeal in accordance with the applicable rules of court governing appeals to that court in civil matters. The notice of appeal shall be filed within 30 days after an administrative decision becomes final under AS 43.05.465 . The right to judicial review under this subsection is not affected by the failure to seek reconsideration before the administrative law judge.
(b) The amount due must be paid or refunded within 30 days after the date that the final administrative decision becomes final under AS 43.05.465. In place of payment of the amount due, a taxpayer who has appealed a final administrative decision may file a bond with the court or otherwise obtain relief from payment in accordance with the Alaska Rules of Appellate Procedure.
(c) Appeals under this section are reviewed under AS 44.62.560 and 44.62.570.
(d) If, after the appeal is heard, it appears that the final administrative decision was correct, the court shall affirm the decision. If the final administrative decision is incorrect, the court shall determine the amount due. If the taxpayer is entitled to a refund, the court shall order the repayment and the Department of Revenue shall pay the amount due and attach a certified copy of the judgment to the payment. If the court determines that the taxpayer owes an additional amount, the court shall order the payment and the taxpayer shall pay the amount due and attach a certified copy of the judgment to the payment. Any payment required under this subsection shall be paid by the 30th day following the expiration of the time within which an appeal from the superior court decision may be filed, unless the party appealing files a bond or otherwise obtains relief from payment in accordance with the Alaska Rules of Appellate Procedure.
