If a licensee wants to appeal a decision made by the Arkansas Real Estate Commission, which entity will render the judgment?

The correct choice is the Circuit Court or Arkansas Supreme Court because appeals of decisions made by the Arkansas Real Estate Commission are handled through the state’s judicial system. When a licensee feels that a decision made by the Commission is unjust or incorrect, they have the right to pursue an appeal in a higher court. This court will review the case, examine the evidence, and render a judgment based on state law and the specifics of the situation.

The association of real estate license law officials and the Arkansas REALTOR Association Executive Board of Directors do not have the authority to overrule or amend decisions made by the Arkansas Real Estate Commission as they serve different purposes in the industry. Additionally, the Governor does not directly intervene in appeals of administrative decisions, as this is a matter that lies within the jurisdiction of the judicial system rather than the executive branch. Thus, turning to the Circuit Court or Arkansas Supreme Court is the appropriate legal path for a licensee looking to appeal a decision.
