Section 2(c) of the Railroad
Unemployment Insurance Act (RUIA)
specifies the maximum normal
unemployment and sickness benefits
that may be paid in a benefit year.
Section 2(c) further provides for
extended benefits for certain employees
and for beginning a benefit year early for
other employees. The conditions for
these actions are prescribed in 20 CFR

All information about creditable

obtain supplemental information about
service and compensation.
The RRB utilizes Form UI–41,
Supplemental Report of Service and
Compensation, and Form UI–41a,
Supplemental Report of Compensation,
to obtain the additional information
about service and compensation from
railroad employers. Completion of the
forms is mandatory. One response is

FINRA is proposing to amend the

change, FINRA would require parties to
use the Party Portal to file and serve
correspondence relating to discovery
requests, but would not permit parties
to file documents produced in response
to discovery requests through the Party
Portal. FINRA is also proposing to
amend the Code of Mediation Procedure
(‘‘Mediation Code’’) to permit mediation
parties to agree to use the Party Portal
to submit and retrieve all documents
and other communications. In addition,
FINRA is revising other provisions in
the Codes to conform to existing
practice.
The text of the proposed rule change
is available on FINRA’s Web site at
https://www.finra.org, at the principal
office of FINRA and at the
Commission’s Public Reference Room.
II. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement of the Purpose of, and
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule
Change
In its filing with the Commission,
FINRA included statements concerning
the purpose of and basis for the
proposed rule change and discussed any
comments it received on the proposed
rule change. The text of these statements
may be examined at the places specified
in Item IV below. FINRA has prepared
summaries, set forth in sections A, B,
and C below, of the most significant
aspects of such statements.
A. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement of the Purpose of, and
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule
Change
1. Purpose
Background
In 2004, FINRA implemented an
online, web-based arbitration claim
notification and filing system that
allowed a claimant 3 or claimant’s
counsel to file voluntarily an arbitration
claim through that system (‘‘online
claim filing system’’).4 Currently, the
Codes allow a claimant to file a claim 5
either in hard copy or by using the
online claim filing system.6 The online
claim filing system allows a claimant to
complete forms, submit documents, and
pay filing fees online. Some of the
benefits of using the online claim filing
system are that claims are filed and
processed more quickly, and the burden
3 See Rules 12100(e) and 13100(e). The term
‘‘claimant’’ means a party that files the statement
of claim that initiates an arbitration proceeding.
4 See Notice to Members 04–56.
5 See Rules 12302(a) and 13302(a).
6 See FINRA, Arbitration Online Claim Filing,
available at https://www.finra.org/arbitration-andmediation/online-claim-filing.

of using hard-copy documents by
parties and staff is significantly reduced.
In June 2013, FINRA introduced a
separate secure, online service called
the Dispute Resolution Portal (‘‘DR
Portal’’) to facilitate interactions among
parties, arbitrators, mediators, and
FINRA staff on arbitration case-related
matters. As further discussed below, the
DR Portal includes both a Party Portal
and an Arbitrator and Mediator Portal.
The Party Portal uses an invitation/
registration process that provides a
secure way to send and receive
arbitration and mediation case
documents. As soon as a party notifies
FINRA of the name of the person who
should be given access to the arbitration
or mediation case file (typically the
party’s representative), FINRA sends an
email to the named person with an
invitation to register on the Party Portal
via a personalized Web address link that
provides complete access to the
specified case. This invitation/
registration process ensures that FINRA
maintains a case specific level of
security and access within the Party
Portal. Once registered, the
representative can provide other
individuals (such as legal assistants and
co-counsel) with access to appropriate
cases on the Party Portal.
FINRA initially opened the Party
Portal to a small number of firms to gain
experience with the technology and to
incorporate user feedback. Over time,
FINRA expanded access to the Party
Portal, and as of July 20, 2015, FINRA
allowed all parties to use the Party
Portal voluntarily in all arbitration and
mediation cases filed as of that date.
Through the Party Portal, parties can,
among other things, receive documents
from and send documents to FINRA,
receive service 7 of a claim, submit an
answer to a claim, submit additional
case documents, view the status of a
case, and select arbitrators.
FINRA staff solicited feedback and
received suggestions from users on how
to enhance the Party Portal’s
functionality. Through a series of
quarterly releases, FINRA has upgraded
the Party Portal to allow parties to,
among other things, schedule hearings,
receive automated messages when new
documents are posted, see an indication
of received documents not yet viewed,
and send documents to other Party
Portal case participants. FINRA received
positive feedback on the Party Portal
from parties who used the system
voluntarily. In light of the positive user
feedback and the various enhancements
7 Service is the process of delivering a pleading
(e.g., the statement of claim or answer) or other
documents to the opposing party.
