Sec. 134.207  Amendments and supplemental pleadings.

    (a) Amendments. Upon motion, and under terms needed to avoid 
prejudice to any non-moving party, the Judge may permit the filing and 
service of amendments to pleadings. However, an amendment will not be 
permitted if it would cause unreasonable delay in the determination of 
the matter. The proposed amendment must be filed and served with the 
motion.
    (b) Supplemental pleadings. Upon motion, and under terms needed to 
avoid prejudice to any non-moving party, the Judge may permit the filing 
and service of a supplemental pleading setting forth relevant 
transactions or occurrences that have taken place since the filing of 
the original pleading. The proposed supplemental pleading must be filed 
and served with the motion.
    (c) 8(a) appeals. In 8(a) program appeals, amendments to pleadings 
and supplemental pleadings will be permitted by the Judge only upon a 
showing of good cause.
    (d) Answer or response. In an order permitting the filing and 
service of an amended or supplemented petition or order to show cause, 
the Judge will establish the time for filing and serving an answer or 
response.
