Who may file a petition for judicial review of the final order?

• A. The governor
• B. The licensee
• C. The public at large
• D. The Department

Answer: (B)

The key idea is standing to seek judicial review of a final agency order—only someone whose substantial interests are affected by the decision can file. A licensee is precisely that party: their professional license and livelihood are directly at stake in the order, and they participated in the administrative process, giving them the right to challenge the ruling in court. The governor isn’t a participant in this licensing action, the public at large has no direct, individual stake, and the department that issued the order isn’t filing to review its own decision. So the licensee is the proper person to pursue judicial review.
