(a) All communications, submittals and pleadings should be addressed to the commission at the office of the commission unless otherwise specifically directed. All communication and filings should clearly designate the file number, docket number, or similar identifying symbols, if any, employed by the commission and should set forth a short title. The person communicating shall state his address, the party he represents, and how response should be sent to him if not by first class mail.

(b) In any proceeding when, upon inspection, the commission is of the opinion that a pleading or other matter tendered for filing does not comply with these rules or is otherwise insufficient, the commission may decline to accept the document for filing and may return it unfiled, or the commission may accept it for filing and advise the person tendering it of the deficiency and require that the deficiency be corrected.

(c) The commission may order any redundant, immaterial, impertinent, or scandalous matter stricken from any document filed with it.

(d) Except as may be otherwise ordered, the original copy of each pleading, submittal or other document shall be signed by the party in interest, or by his or its attorney, as required by subsection (e) of this section, and shall show the office and post office address of such party or attorney. All other copies filed shall be fully conformed thereto.

(e) Pleadings, submittals and other documents filed shall be subscribed:

(i) by the person filing such documents, and severally if there is more than one person so filing; or

(ii) by an officer thereof if it is a corporation, trust, association, or other organized group; or

(iii) by an officer or employee thereof if it is another public agency or a political subdivision; or

(iv) by an attorney having authority with respect thereto.

(f) Documents filed by any corporation, trust, association, or other organized group, may be required to be supplemented by appropriate evidence of the authority of the officer or attorney subscribing such documents.

(g) The signature of the person subscribing any document filed constitutes a certificate by such individual that he had read the document being subscribed and filed, and knows the contents thereof; that if executed in any representative capacity, the document has been subscribed and executed in the capacity specified upon the document with full power and authority so to do; that the contents are true as stated, except as to matters and things, if any, stated on information and belief, and that as to those matters and things, he believes them to be true.
