Quizplus · Accepted Answer

All of the above doctrines, ripeness, mootness, and exhaustion are correct statements of judicial self-restraint that limit the ability of litigants to bring administrative actions before the court. The ripeness doctrine requires that litigants must have a real case or controversy before the court, with opposing interests that are not speculative or hypothetical. The mootness doctrine requires that the matter must still be a live controversy at the time of the court's decision, and not already resolved. The exhaustion doctrine requires that litigants must have exhausted all administrative remedies before bringing their case before the court. All of these doctrines serve to limit the court's role in administrative proceedings and encourage litigants to seek resolution through administrative channels before turning to the courts.
