CHAPTER 7--JUDICIAL REVIEW
Sec. 705. Relief pending review
When an agency finds that justice so requires, it may postpone the
effective date of action taken by it, pending judicial review. On such
conditions as may be required and to the extent necessary to prevent
irreparable injury, the reviewing court, including the court to which a
case may be taken on appeal from or on application for certiorari or
other writ to a reviewing court, may issue all necessary and appropriate
process to postpone the effective date of an agency action or to
preserve status or rights pending conclusion of the review proceedings.
