Limiting Excessive Government Obstruction Act

The bill would allow parties facing agency adjudications to file a demurrer, which, if granted, would result in a final dismissal with prejudice by the adjudicator. If an adjudication is dismissed this way, the agency may file a civil action in district court within 90 days, where the defendant would be entitled to a jury trial and could assert that the alleged violation was reasonable under the circumstances as a defense. These provisions do not apply to matters involving immigration, national security, tax, bankruptcy, patents, or federal benefits such as retirement, health, housing, or unemployment assistance.
