Oregon Request For Hearing (OF) is a form used by an individual or business to request an administrative hearing before the Oregon Department of Administrative Hearings (ODD). The OF form is used to initiate a formal dispute resolution process in which an Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) is assigned to review the facts and make a final decision. The most common type of Oregon Request For Hearing is the contested case hearing. This type of hearing is used to resolve disputes between two or more parties, often involving an administrative agency or a regulatory board. The ALJ assigned to the case will review the facts and evidence presented by each side, and make a ruling based on the applicable laws and regulations. Other types of Oregon Request For Hearing include declaratory order hearings, enforcement hearings, and rule making proceedings. These types of hearings are used to determine the status of a particular law or regulation, or to establish an enforcement action against a party for violation of a law or regulation.
