Question

When are parties able to bring judicial challenges to an agency's rule during the rulemaking process?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Until the rule is actually finalized and enacted, the party would have no basis for a lawsuit. Federal law requires government agencies to allow at least 30 days after publication for the public to submit “written data, views, or arguments” regarding a proposed rule. In some cases, the statute authorizing a rule requires a longer comment period.
