What are the remedies available in administrative law?

The remedies available in administrative law in South Carolina depend on the type of case. Generally speaking, remedies can include: 1. Monetary relief, such as fines, fees or reimbursement of costs, or restitution. 2. Declaratory relief, in which a court makes a formal determination of a person’s legal rights or obligations. 3. Injunctive relief, in which a court orders a person to take or refrain from taking a certain action. 4. Removal or suspension from office, a disciplinary action taken against an official or employee for misconduct. 5. Restoration to previous status or position. 6. Negotiated settlement or agreement, often after a complaint is filed or a hearing is requested. These remedies are administered through administrative law hearings, which are usually conducted by an administrative law judge. The administrative law hearings are less formal than court hearings and follow different procedures, as defined by the applicable laws and regulations. The purpose of the hearings is to determine the facts of the case and either enforce or modify the applicable rules, regulations and statutes. The remedies available in these hearings depend on the facts of the case and the applicable law.
