A quick definition of administrative hearing:

An administrative hearing is like a trial where a judge decides if a government agency followed the rules. The judge is called an administrative law judge (ALJ). People can argue their side and show evidence, but the process is usually faster and simpler than a regular trial. The ALJ makes a decision, and sometimes people can appeal to a higher court. But first, they have to follow the agency's own rules for reviewing the decision.

A more thorough explanation:

An administrative hearing is a legal process that takes place when there is a dispute involving the regulatory jurisdiction of an executive agency. This means that if a person or organization disagrees with a decision made by a government agency, they can request an administrative hearing to resolve the issue.

During an administrative hearing, an administrative law judge (ALJ) presides over the proceedings. The ALJ is responsible for hearing arguments and evidence from both sides and making a final decision based on the facts presented.

Administrative hearings are similar to judicial proceedings, but they are usually less formal and more flexible. Parties may represent themselves without a lawyer, and the process is often quicker than a traditional court case.

After the hearing, the ALJ will make a ruling. This ruling may be appealed, but there are often specific processes that must be followed before the case can be heard in a federal court.

An example of an administrative hearing might be a dispute between a business and a government agency over a violation of a regulation. The business could request an administrative hearing to present their case and argue that they did not violate the regulation. The ALJ would hear evidence from both sides and make a final decision.
