§ 2176. Review—Remedies

The Court of Appeals shall review the final decisions, orders and resolutions of administrative entities or agencies as a question of law. The mere filing of the recourse shall not stay the procedures of the administrative entity or agency, unless the court so determines.

The procedures to be followed for the petitions for review shall be as established in the regulations of the Court of Appeals approved by the Supreme Court.

It shall not be compulsory for the Commonwealth to appear before the Court of Appeals unless it is so ordered by the court.

The court may grant the requested remedy or any other remedy it deems appropriate, including extraordinary recourses, even if they are not requested, and may grant reasonable attorney fees, costs and expenses to any party that prevails in the judicial review.
