Highlight

Judicial estoppel prohibits a party from taking inconsistent or contradictory positions during litigation.
Administrative due process requires a fair hearing before a fair tribunal. The fact-finder in an administrative hearing cannot prejudge the case, harbor a bias against a party, or participate in the hearing if there is a high probability of bias against a party.
A district court acting in an appellate capacity has authority under the Administrative Agencies Practice Act to dispose of procedural matters as reasonably required, including the ability to vacate a judgment entered on the basis of a procedural mistake.
