Section 031-355-12 - Motions for Rehearing or Reopening
Current through 2024-38, September 18, 2024
Motions for rehearing or reopening to change, modify, rescind or vacate a decision or order of the Superintendent, including a motion or request to set aside a default, must be filed with the Bureau within fourteen (14) days after service of the determination or order to which the request relates. Such motion or request shall comply with Section 9 of this Chapter.
A. Effect of Rehearing or Reopening. Unless otherwise specified, a decision to grant a motion to rehear or reopen a case does not act to stay the effect of the Superintendent's order to which the rehearing or reopening applies. A timely motion under this subsection terminates the running of time for an appeal, which then begins to run after the motion is acted on or deemed denied under Paragraph B.
B. Any motion for rehearing or reopening that is not granted within fourteen (14) days from the date of filing shall be deemed to be denied.
C. The Superintendent or anyone designated by the Superintendent may, on his or her own motion and after notice to all parties, rehear or reopen any matter at any time, to the extent permitted by law.
