1. (1) Except as provided in subsection (2) of this section, any rule, regulation, or final order of the commission is subject to judicial review in accordance with section 24-4-106. The commission is not required to post bond in any proceeding for judicial review.

2. (2) Notwithstanding section 24-4-106 (5), a court of competent jurisdiction may postpone the effective date of a commission order suspending or revoking an operator's license to conduct oil and gas operations or a certificate of clearance and subject to review as a final agency action pursuant to section 24-4-106 only upon a demonstration by the moving party that:

   1. (a) The moving party has a reasonable probability of success on the merits in the underlying judicial proceeding;
   2. (b) Real, immediate, and irreparable injury to the moving party would otherwise result;
   3. (c) Postponing the effective date of the commission order will not disserve the public interest; and
   4. (d) In consideration of the balance of equities, including consideration of potential adverse impacts on public health, safety, and welfare and the protection of the environment and wildlife resources, the balance favors the postponement.
