Aggrieved persons; petition for review; jurisdiction; statement of
facts; order
Sec. 3. (a) A person aggrieved by an order or act of the bureau
under section 1 or 2 of this chapter may, within fifteen (15) days
after notice is given, file a petition in the circuit or superior court of
the county in which the person resides. If the person is a nonresident,
the person may file a petition for review in the Marion circuit court.
(b) The petitioner must state facts showing how the order or act
of the bureau is wrongful or unlawful, but the filing of a petition does
not suspend the order or act unless a stay is allowed by a judge of the
court pending final determination of the review on a showing of
reasonable probability that the order or act is wrongful or unlawful.
(c) The court shall, within six (6) months of the date of the filing
of the petition, hear the petition, take testimony, and examine the
facts of the case. The court may, in disposing of the issues, modify,
affirm, or reverse the order or act of the bureau in whole or in part
and shall make an appropriate order. If the petition has not been
heard within six (6) months from the date of the filing, the original
order or act of the bureau shall be reinstated in full force and effect.
