§ 254. Resolution or order

(1) A final order or resolution shall be issued by the Commissioner after the conclusion of adjudication procedure. The Commissioner or any other official onto whom he/she delegates, shall sign the order or resolution, which shall include and state separately the findings of fact, if not waived, and the conclusions of law. The order or resolution shall state the right to request reconsideration before the Office of the Commissioner or to file a writ for review before the Court of Appeals stating the corresponding terms. The notice and the filing of the order or resolution in the record of the case shall be carried out pursuant to the provisions of the Uniform Administrative Procedure Act.

(2) The Commissioner may issue a summary resolution settling, in whole or in part, the controversies, provided that he/she determines that in light of the documents before his/her consideration, there is no real conflict as to the material facts and that only conflicts of law are to be adjudicated. In the event that a decision summarily rendered settles any and all disputes before the consideration of the Commissioner, the holding of a hearing shall not be necessary. Any party adversely affected by the decision so rendered shall be duly notified on the same, and shall exercise his/her right to request judicial review as provided in the Uniform Administrative Procedure Act.
