An Act relative to due process

This bill modifies Massachusetts law to change how appeals are handled for individuals suspended or decertified by the state Commission. Specifically, it requires that appeals for suspensions lasting longer than two weeks or for decertification be reviewed de novo, meaning the appeal court will examine the case from the beginning rather than just reviewing the original decision. The change directly affects applicants facing these specific disciplinary actions, ensuring they receive a fresh evaluation of the evidence. This provision aims to provide a more thorough review process for serious disciplinary outcomes within the Commission's jurisdiction.
