in order to obtain the full three year
clearance from them. The Commission
is requesting an extension (no change in
the recordkeeping and/or third party
disclosure requirements) of this
information collection. There is a
change to the estimated number of
respondents/responses and annual
burden hours. The Commission adopted
accounting rules that require carriers to
account for adverse federal antitrust
judgments and post-judgment special
charges. With regard to settlements of
such lawsuits there will be a
presumption that carriers can recover
the portion of the settlement that
represents the avoidable costs of
litigation; provided that the carrier
makes a required showing. To receive
recognition of its avoided cost of
litigation a carrier must demonstrate, in
a request for special relief, the avoided
costs of litigation by showing the
amount corresponding to the additional
litigation expenses discounted to
present value, that the carrier
reasonably estimates it would have paid
if it had not settled. Settlement costs in
excess of the avoided costs of litigation
are presumed not recoverable unless a
carrier rebuts that presumption by
showing the basic factors that enticed
the carrier to settle and demonstrating
that ratepayers benefited from the
settlement. A carrier requesting.
