Session 2: What is a “Rule”? Navigating a Notoriously Muddled Corner(stone) of Texas Administrative Law - When must a Texas administrative agency use the APA’s notice-and-comment rulemaking procedures? When is a statement by an agency or an agency official considered to be a rule that can be challenged in an APA declaratory judgment action? A review of the case law sheds some light on these mysteries.
Session 3: Rules and Rulemaking: The Need for Clarification of Procedural Requirements and the Opportunities for Substantive Challenges - Is Texas law on rules and rulemaking procedures as muddled as some say? What are the prospects for clarification by the Texas Supreme Court? When can a rule be challenged on substantive due course of law grounds under the Court’s decision in Patel v. Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation? A panel of experienced administrative law practitioners discusses these issues.
