(a) Before the date set for a hearing before the circuit court of a petition under Title 4, Subtitle 9 of this article, a petitioner or a party in interest properly before the court may petition the court in writing for leave to present additional evidence on an issue for which judicial review is sought.

(b) If, after a hearing, the court is satisfied that the additional evidence is material and that there were good reasons for failure to present the evidence in the proceeding before the Board, the court shall remand the case to the Board and order that the evidence be taken before the Board on the conditions the court considers proper.

(c) (1) On remand for the taking of additional evidence, the Board may modify or reverse the previous findings and decision of the Board by reason of the additional evidence.
