01-2-3798 In the Matter of William R. Hendrickson, Jr., N.J. Super. App. Div. (Alvarez, P.J.A.D.) (17 pp.) If an agency fails to timely act on an administrative law judge’s initial decision, by statute it is “deemed adopted,” and becomes final. See N.J.S.A. 52:14B-10(c). The court holds that when the lack of a quorum attributable to vacancies caused the agency inaction, the deferential agency standard of review will not be employed. Instead, the court will review the decision using the standard for decisions rendered in bench trials. (Approved for Publication)
