Index of Administrator's Decisions and Orders in Civil Penalty Actions; Publication

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of publication.

SUMMARY: This notice constitutes the required quarterly publication of an index of the Administrator's decisions and orders in civil penalty cases. This publication represents the quarter ending on June 30, 1999. This publication ensures that the agency is in compliance with statutory indexing requirements.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: James S. Dillman, Assistant Chief Counsel for Litigation (AGC-400), Federal Aviation Administration, 400 7th Street, SW., Suite PL 200-A, Washington, DC 20590: telephone (202) 366-4118.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Administrative Procedure Act requires Federal agencies to maintain and make available for public inspection and copying current indexes containing identifying information regarding materials required to be made available or published. 5 U.S.C. 552(a)(2). In a notice issued on July 11, 1990, and published in the Federal Register (55 FR 29148; July 17, 1990), the FAA announced the public availability of several indexes and summaries that provide identifying information about the decisions and orders issued by the Administrator under the FAA's civil penalty assessment authority and the rules of practice governing hearings and appeals of civil penalty actions. 14 CFR Part 13, Subpart G.

The FAA maintains an index of the Administrator's decisions and orders in civil penalty actions organized by order number and containing identifying information about each decision or order. The FAA also maintains a cumulative subject-matter index and digests organized by order number.

[[Page 43237]]

The indexes are published on a quarterly basis (i.e., January, April, July, and October). This publication represents the quarter ending on March 31, 1999.

The FAA first published these indexes and digests for all decisions and orders issued by the Administrator through September 30, 1990. 55 FR 45984; October 31, 1990. The FAA announced in that notice that only the subject-matter index would be published cumulatively and that the order number index would be non-cumulative. The FAA announced in a later notice that the order number indexes published in January would reflect all of the civil penalty decisions for the previous year. 58 FR 5044; 1/19/93.

The previous quarterly publications of these indexes have appeared in the Federal Register as follows:

Civil Penalty Actions--Orders Issued by the Administrator

Digests

(Current as of June 30, 1999)

The following compilation of digests includes all final decisions and orders issued by the Administrator from April 1, 1999, to June 30, 1999. The FAA will publish the non-cumulative supplements to this compilation on a quarterly basis (e.g., April, July, October, and January of each year).

These digests do not constitute legal authority, and should not be cited or relied upon as such. The digests are not intended to serve as a substitute for proper legal research. Parties, attorneys, and other interested persons should always consult the full text of the Administrator's decisions before citing them in any context.

In the Matter of Clarence L. Justice

Order No. 99-3 (6/11/99)

[DMS No. FAA-1998-4751]

Motion to Dismiss Denied. Good cause was found to excuse the respondent's late-filing (by 8 days) of a notice of appeal from the law judge's order assessing a $6,600 civil penalty. On February 4, the law judge ordered respondent to respond to a show cause order and to submit an answer to be received by February 16. On February 4, respondent was released from a residential treatment facility and then moved to another state. He did not receive his mail until after the law judge dismissed the case. Notice of appeal also was sufficiently detailed to constitute an appeal brief. Complainant was ordered to file a reply brief.
