50 U.S.C. § 4109 — Hearings on claims; finality of decision
submitted 78 years ago by ch. 826 to r/title-50-WAR-AND-NATIONAL-DEFENSE · 181 words · no verdicts yet
The Commission must notify claimants whether it approved their claims and of approved amounts. A claimant denied or underpaid may request a hearing, but the Commission’s action is final and conclusive on all questions of law and fact and cannot be reviewed by any other United States official or court by mandamus or otherwise.
The Commission must notify every claimant whether the claim was approved or denied and, if approved, the amount approved. A claimant whose claim was denied or approved for less than the full allowable amount is entitled, under regulations the Commission prescribes, to a hearing before the Commission or its representatives about the claim. At that hearing, the Commission may affirm, modify, or revise its earlier action on the claim, including a denial or a reduction in the amount previously allowed. The Commission’s action allowing or denying a claim is final and conclusive on all questions of law and fact. No other official of the United States or any court may review that action by mandamus or otherwise. The Comptroller General is authorized and directed to allow credit in the accounts of any certifying or disbursing officer for payments made according to that action.
The Commission shall notify all claimants of the approval or denial of their claims, and, if approved, shall notify such claimants of the amount for which such claims are approved. Any claimant whose claim is denied, or is approved for less than the full allowable amount of such claim, shall be entitled, under such regulations as the Commission may prescribe, to a hearing before the Commission or its representatives with respect to such claim. Upon such hearing, the Commission may affirm, modify, or revise its former action with respect to such claim, including a denial or reduction in the amount theretofore allowed with respect to such claim. The action of the Commission in allowing or denying any claim under this subchapter shall be final and conclusive on all questions of law and fact and not subject to review by any other official of the United States or by any court by mandamus or otherwise, and the Comptroller General is authorized and directed to allow credit in the accounts of any certifying or disbursing officer for payments in accordance with such action.
