Notes of Decisions
The procedure set out in this section is constitutional without being duplicative. Waltz v. Bd. of Parole, 18 Or App 652, 526 P2d 586 (1974)
Challenge to refusal of Board of Parole to set release date should have been brought under this section rather than through declaratory judgment provisions of ORS chapter 28. Sterling v. Blalock, 47 Or App 275, 614 P2d 610 (1980)
Court of Appeals had jurisdiction to review final orders by Board of Parole relating to granting of parole. Harris v. Board of Parole, 288 Or 495, 605 P2d 1181 (1980)
Failure of Parole Board to reduce time for petitioner’s release to the time he felt was proper, even though the Board did in fact reduce the release time from its original determination, caused petitioner to be “adversely affected or aggrieved by a final order” within meaning of this section. Hein v. Board of Parole, 56 Or App 293, 641 P2d 642 (1982)
Parole Board order setting release date is not final order while administrative review is pending. Palaia v. Board of Parole, 57 Or App 781, 646 P2d 654 (1982)
This section does not create duty for the Parole Board to notify inmates of right to judicial review of its orders and, therefore, petitioner is not excused from his failure to seek that review. Billings v. Maass, 86 Or App 66, 738 P2d 222 (1987)
Board of Parole order setting parole consideration hearing date is final order related to granting of parole and is subject to review. Meriweather v. Board of Parole, 307 Or 509, 770 P2d 593 (1989)

“Substantial question of law” is not presented if: 1) ruling raising question is not reviewable; 2) question is contrary to constitutional statute; 3) question is contrary to state appellate decisions and does not raise new argument or cite new authority; or 4) disposition of question is controlled by unambiguous language of valid administrative rule. Rodriguez v. Board of Parole and Post-Prison Supervision, 187 Or App 282, 67 P3d 970 (2003)
Motion for leave to proceed with judicial review stands or falls on questions of law argued in motion, notwithstanding whether other unarticulated questions of law are present in case. Rodriguez v. Board of Parole and Post-Prison Supervision, 187 Or App 282, 67 P3d 970 (2003)
If petitioner identifies at least one substantial question of law, motion for leave to proceed with judicial review will be granted even if petitioner has asserted other questions of law that are not substantial.

“Substantial question of law” means soundly based, firmly supported question, capable of adjudication as to what law is, that is presented by facts of particular case at bar. Atkinson v. Board of Parole and Post-Prison Supervision, 341 Or 382, 143 P3d 538 (2006)

Where petitioner sought review of Board of Parole and Post-Prison Supervision decision that relied on psychological evaluation to postpone petitioner’s release under ORS 144.125 and board issued detailed administrative review response that upheld decision, board’s response was reviewable final order made within scope of board’s authority. Jenkins v. Board of Parole and Post-Prison Supervision, 356 Or 186, 335 P3d 828 (2014)
Orders by Board of Parole and Post-Prison Supervision are not subject to ORS 183.470 (2) that require agency final orders to be accompanied by findings of fact and conclusions of law, but are subject to substantial reason standard of review in ORS 183.482 (8)(c), and board’s final order that cites psychological evaluation as basis for decision to postpone petitioner’s release meets substantial reason standard.
