      <text>If the evidence presented on judicial review is materially different from the evidence presented at the hearing before the Commission, the court shall:</text>
      <level label="i">
        <text>unless all parties stipulate in writing to the contrary, refer a transcript of the new evidence to the Commission; and</text>
