Terms Used In Alaska Statutes 23.20.445

  • Appeal: A request made after a trial, asking another court (usually the court of appeals) to decide whether the trial was conducted properly. To make such a request is "to appeal" or "to take an appeal." One who appeals is called the appellant.
  • Appellate: About appeals; an appellate court has the power to review the judgement of another lower court or tribunal.
  • state: includes the states of the United States of America, the District of Columbia, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands. See Alaska Statutes 23.20.520

Each party, including the properly designated representative of the department, shall be promptly given a copy of the decision and the supporting findings and conclusions of the department. The decision is final unless a party initiates judicial review by filing an appeal in the superior court as provided in the Rules of Appellate Procedure of the State of Alaska. For the purpose of judicial review, an appeal tribunal’s decision from which an application for appeal has been denied by the department is considered the decision of the department, except that the time for initiating judicial review runs from the date of the mailing or delivery of the notice of the denial of the application for appeal by the department.
