If a petition for reconsideration is denied, within how many days must a Petition for Writ of Review be filed?

• A. 60 days
• B. 20 days
• C. 45 days
• D. 30 days

Answer: (C)

The key point is the filing deadline for judicial review after an agency denies a reconsideration. When a petition for reconsideration is denied, you must seek review by filing a Petition for Writ of Review within 45 days from the date the denial is served. If service is by mail, you add five days to that period, so the deadline becomes 50 days in that scenario. This 45-day window (with the possible 5-day extension for mailed service) is the standard timetable for admin writ review, and missing it usually bars the review.
