§ 23-37-214 — Appeal from decision of board

(a) Any person affected by any action, decision, or order of the Savings and Loan Association Board [abolished] may, within thirty (30) days after a written copy of the action, decision, or order has been mailed to that person, appeal as a matter of right to the Pulaski County Circuit Court by filing written notice of appeal in that court and by filing a copy of the notice with the Supervisor of Savings and Loan Associations. (b) Upon filing of the notice of appeal, the court shall have full jurisdiction, shall determine whether the appeal shall operate as a stay of the order, decision, or action appealed from, and shall have the right at any time thereafter to issue any other temporary or preliminary orders which it may deem proper until final judgment is rendered. (c) Within thirty (30) days after the filing of a notice of appeal in his or her office, the supervisor shall make, certify, and deposit in the office of the clerk of the court a full and complete transcript of all proceedings had before the board and of all evidence before the board in the matter and of all files of the supervisor therein. (d) As soon as reasonably possible after receipt of the transcript, evidence, and files, the Pulaski County Circuit Court shall review the action of the board appealed from. The appeal shall be upon the basis of the record so presented. In any such review the findings of the board as to the facts, if supported by substantial evidence, shall be conclusive. (e) After hearing the appeal, the court may affirm, modify, or reverse the order or action of the board in whole or in part or remand the action to the board for further proceedings in accordance with the court's direction, including the taking of additional evidence. (f) Costs shall be awarded as in civil actions. (g) An appeal may be taken to the Supreme Court from a judgment of the circuit court, as in other civil cases.
