Current through Register Vol. 47, No. 12, December 22, 2023

Answers are submitted to the Commission in response to complaints and petitions, and to Rules to Show Cause issued by the Commission. Answers are not required to Petitions for Rehearing or Reconsideration.

A. Content of Answers.

(1) Answers shall be drawn so as to advise fully and completely the Commission and any party as to the nature of the defense. Answers shall admit or deny, specifically and in detail, each material allegation of the pleading answered, and shall state clearly and concisely the facts and law relied upon.

(2) In an answer to a Rule to Show Cause, mere general denials of the allegations contained in the rule which are unsupported by specific facts will not be considered as complying with this section and may be deemed a basis for entry of a final order without hearing, unless otherwise required by law, on the ground that that answer has raised no issue requiring a hearing or further proceeding.

B. Form of Answers. Except as provided in R. 103-826 all answers shall conform to the requirements of R. 103-819 through R. 103-822.
