What if a party disagrees with the ALJ's decision?

(1) If a party disagrees with an ALJ's initial or final order because of a clerical error, the party may ask for a corrected decision from the ALJ as provided in WAC 388-02-0540 through 388-02-0555.

(2) If a party disagrees with an initial order and wants it changed, the party must request review by a review judge as provided in WAC 388-02-0560 through 388-02-0595.

If a party wants to stay the DSHS action until review of the initial order is completed, the party must request a stay from a review judge.

(3) Final orders entered by ALJs may not be reviewed by a review judge.

(4) If a party disagrees with an ALJ's final order, the party may request reconsideration as provided in WAC 388-02-0605 through 388-02-0635. You may also petition for judicial review of the final order as stated in WAC 388-02-0640 through 388-02-0650. You do not need to file a request for reconsideration of the final order before petitioning for judicial review. DSHS may not request judicial review of an ALJ's or review judge's final order.
