Chapter 3 - Alternative Dispute Resolution Procedures
Section III-335 - Notice of a Waiver or Extension

A. When required by any party, notice that a written waiver or extension of any and all applicable prescriptive periods must be executed to each party's satisfaction. No party will be required to execute any waiver or extension of a statutory limitation as a condition of participating in an alternative dispute resolution process. Unless otherwise agreed to by the parties, any waiver or extension of prescription will apply to only those issues agreed upon as subject to the alternative dispute resolution process. If a written waiver or extension is required by a party, no alternative dispute resolution process will begin until an agreement has been executed.

B. The department and taxpayer will have 30 business days to resolve the issues and execute the waiver or extension. If no agreement is reached during that period of time, the arbitrator will terminate the alternative dispute resolution process. In the event that an alternative dispute resolution process has been terminated, the parties have a right to initiate a new alternative dispute resolution process. If the second attempt to initiate an alternative dispute resolution process fails, any subsequent attempts will not be allowed unless the arbitrator agrees it is in the party's best interest to continue to arrive at an agreement.
