                    TITLE 43--PUBLIC LANDS: INTERIOR
 
PART 4--DEPARTMENT HEARINGS AND APPEALS PROCEDURES--Table of Contents
 
   Subpart C--Special Rules of Practice Before the Interior Board of 
                            Contract Appeals
 
Sec. 4.110  Prehearing briefs.

    Based on an examination of the appeal file, the pleadings, and a 
determination of whether the arguments and authorities addressed to the 
issues are adequately set forth therein, the Board may, in its 
discretion, require the parties to submit prehearing briefs in any case 
in which a hearing has been elected pursuant to Sec. 4.109. In the 
absence of a Board requirement therefore, either party may, in its 
discretion, and upon appropriate and sufficient notice to the other 
party, furnish a prehearing brief to the Board. In any case where a 
prehearing brief is submitted, it shall be furnished so as to be 
received by the Board at least 15 days prior to the date set for 
hearing, and a copy shall be furnished simultaneously to the other 
party.
