(6) REVIEW AND IMPOSITION OF SANCTIONS; REVIEW OF ADJUDICATION.

(a) The Review Board consists of the Dean of the College of Law; the University of Florida Dean of Students or his or her designee; and the Chair.

(b) The Review Board shall review the record and all sanctions recommended by the committee. If the Review Board is satisfied that the sanctions are appropriate, the Review Board shall impose the appropriate sanctions.

(c) If a student petitions the Review Board for review of the student’s adjudication of an Honor Code violation, the Review Board shall review the record to determine whether the record supports the adjudication. To petition, the student must submit written notice to the Dean of the College of Law no later than the 5th business day after the sanction has been imposed.

(d) If at any time subsequent to a student’s adjudication of an Honor Code violation the student discovers substantial new evidence tending to refute the judgment, the student may petition the Review Board to determine whether further proceedings are warranted. “Substantial new evidence” means evidence that was not available to the student during the original Honor Code proceedings through the exercise of reasonable diligence.
