Appeals from a decision of the Board shall be to a circuit court with
jurisdiction in the Commonwealth.  An appeal must be made within thirty days of
the date of the Board’s order. Once made, an appeal shall stay the
Board’s order.  Neither the regulant nor the Board shall be required to
pay damages to the claimant until such time as a final order of the court is
issued.  The court may award reasonable attorney’s fees and court costs to
be paid by the recovery fund. Except as provided to the contrary herein, appeals
pursuant to this section shall be in conformance with the Administrative Process
Act (§ 2.2-4000 et seq.).
