H 1828 Massachusetts House · 194th Legislature (2025-2026)

An Act relative to due process

HD 362 amends Chapter 6E of the General Laws to require a de novo review (a fresh, full review from the start) for appeals related to Commission decisions that suspend licenses for over two weeks or result in decertification. This change directly affects individuals or entities facing such penalties, as their appeals will now undergo a new evaluation instead of relying solely on the original decision. The key provision modifies the CH.30A appeal process to ensure these specific cases are reconsidered independently. The bill focuses on procedural due process for license-related disciplinary actions.
