9-30-4-3 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.
