U.S. Code as of:
01/19/04
Section 81r. Revocation of grants
(a) Procedure for revocation
In the event of repeated willful violations of any of the
provisions of this chapter by the grantee, the Board may revoke the
grant after four months' notice to the grantee and affording it an
opportunity to be heard. The testimony taken before the Board shall
be reduced to writing and filed in the records of the Board
together with the decision reached thereon.
(b) Attendance of witnesses and production of evidence
In the conduct of any proceeding under this section for the
revocation of a grant the Board may compel the attendance of
witnesses and the giving of testimony and the production of
documentary evidence, and for such purpose may invoke the aid of
the district courts of the United States.
(c) Nature of order of revocation; appeal
An order under the provisions of this section revoking the grant
issued by the Board shall be final and conclusive, unless within
ninety days after its service the grantee appeals to the court of
appeals for the circuit in which the zone is located by filing with
the clerk of said court a written petition praying that the order
of the Board be set aside. Such order shall be stayed pending the
disposition of appellate proceedings by the court. The clerk of the
court in which such a petition is filed shall immediately cause a
copy thereof to be delivered to the Board and it shall thereupon
file in the court the record in the proceedings held before it
under this section, as provided in section 2112 of title 28. The
testimony and evidence taken or submitted before the Board, duly
certified and filed as a part of the record, shall be considered by
the court as the evidence in the case.
