1107.06000 – De Novo Review; Standard of Review by Board
When resolving exceptions to a proposed decision, the Board applies a de novo standard of review. Under this standard, we review the entire record and are free to make different factual findings and reach different legal conclusions than those in the proposed decision. The Board need not address alleged errors that would not impact the outcome. (p. 11.)
