This bill proposes the creation of a new section in chapter 28-32 of the North Dakota Century Code, specifically addressing the concept of judicial deference. The new legal language stipulates that when interpreting or applying a statute, regulation, or rule, judges are prohibited from deferring to the interpretations made by administrative agencies regarding those statutes, regulations, or rules.

The intent of this legislation is to ensure that judicial interpretations remain independent of administrative agency perspectives, thereby reinforcing the judiciary's role in the interpretation of laws without influence from administrative bodies. This change aims to clarify the relationship between the judiciary and administrative agencies in the context of legal interpretation.
