Welcome to the CDSS State Hearings Division’s Decision Registry.

You may search for and get your own copies of any decisions released by the Appeals Case Management System (ACMS).

State Hearing Division decisions are not precedential in nature and decisions from the registry cannot be cited as authority for Administrative Law Judges to follow in any other hearings.

Instructions:

• Please use Chrome, Firefox, or Edge as your browser when visiting this page in order to view information properly. Microsoft Internet Explorer is no longer supported and will not work properly with this decision registry.
• Enter information in one or more search fields below to narrow the search of decisions you would like to see.
• Press “Search” to get a list of all decisions meeting your search terms, then click on “Download” in the far-right column for each decision to get a PDF copy of any decisions in your search.
• Press “Copy Link to Results” to get a web link for your search results.
• Use of this decision registry is free and you may print hearing decisions at your own cost.
• Counties with small populations are not listed individually under “Responsible Agencies” in order to protect the confidentiality of claimants. These counties are grouped under the category “No Name Counties.”
• Multiple issue codes may be entered during a single search by pressing tab or the space bar after entering a 3- or 4-digit issue code, then entering another issue code.
• Users may also contact SHD directly to get copies of decisions in accessible, alternative formats (such as large print) or to make other requests for data, including Public Records Act requests.
