Administrative Hearing Information

The purpose of a MCSA Administrative Hearing is to allow you the opportunity to dispute Out-of-Service (OOS) violations discovered during a roadside inspection. The Hearing is conducted by telephone and intended to be an informal process. They generally include a hearing officer from our office, the Inspector that performed the inspection, you or your representative, subject matter experts or any other parties necessary. Parties can submit evidence prior to the hearing. During the hearing the Hearing Officer will be the facilitator and give each party the chance to address the violation(s). After the completion of the hearing, the Hearing Officer will take everything under advisement to make a decision. A Final Order will be created and you should receive that decision within 4-6 weeks by mail. *Please let us know ahead of time if a translator is needed.

If you wish to dispute only the amount of the civil penalty and/or the length of time to pay, you can select to have our staff review your request through Troop S’ settlement agreement program. You should notify Troop S of your request in writing or by filling out the electronic form here. We will determine if your case is appropriate for a settlement and contact you with the decision regarding your request. This request will serve as your hearing request in the event a settlement cannot be made and you wish to progress the matter to an administrative hearing.

You may choose settlement agreement if the only issues that you dispute are the amount of the civil penalty and/or the length of time to pay.

To submit your request in writing please include the following information: Commercial Vehicle Examination Report Number, Company Name, Company mailing address, DOT Number (if applicable), Your Name, Phone Number and email address and justification for your request as well as a suggested resolution.
