Judicial Review Improvement Act of 2017

This bill specifies the general standard for judicial review of actions by certain federal financial regulatory agencies.

Specifically, courts reviewing an action by such agency must generally decide de novo (i.e., without deference to the agency's interpretation) all relevant questions of law, including the interpretation of constitutional and statutory provisions and rules made by the agency.
