county in which the petitioner resides or in which the administrative proceeding is
or will be held.
(b) The court shall consist of the presiding judge, and no jury shall be used. The proceeding

in civil actions. No answer or responsive motion is required, but such papers may
be filed. No filing fee shall be required. The court shall schedule a hearing on
the motion as soon as is reasonably practicable.

subpoena or discovery order. (Added 1983, No. 230 (Adj. Sess.), § 5.)
