§ 147. Regulations

The Corporation shall not adopt any regulation, nor shall it amend or revoke it, without first holding a public hearing, of an informative character, quasi-legislative, upon the previous corresponding notice to the public in a newspaper of general circulation in Puerto Rico. The said hearing shall be held before the Governing Board or before an examining officer appointed by the Board for such purposes.

Any person directly aggrieved by the provisions of a regulation adopted by the Corporation may, within the term of thirty (30) days from the date on which said regulation is published in accordance with Act No. 112 of May 16, 1958, as amended, request its review before the San Juan Part of the Court of First Instance of Puerto Rico.

The conclusions of fact reached by the Corporation shall be final, and the modification or revocation of the regulation shall only take place if the Corporation, on adopting it, incurs in any error of law. The filing of the appeal for review shall not produce the suspension of the approved regulation, unless the Court of First Instance determines that its suspension is necessary so as to avoid irreparable damages to the appellant. The judgment rendered by the Court of First Instance, San Juan Part, shall be final and may only be reviewed by the Supreme Court through certiorari issued at its discretion, and in no other way.
