PART 302--RULES OF PRACTICE IN PROCEEDINGS--Table of Contents
 
Sec. 302.1  Applicability and description of part.

    (a) Applicability. This part governs the conduct of all aviation 
economic proceedings before the Department whether instituted by order 
of the Department or by the filing with the Department of an 
application, complaint, petition, motion, or other authorized or 
required document. This part also contains delegations to administrative 
law judges and to the DOT decisionmaker of the Department's function to 
render the agency decision in certain cases and the procedures for 
review of those decisions. This part applies unless otherwise specified 
by order of the Department.
    (b) Description. Subpart A of this part sets forth general rules 
applicable to all types of proceedings. Each of the other subparts of 
this part sets forth special rules applicable to the type of proceedings 
described in the title of the subpart. Therefore, for information as to 
applicable rules, reference should be made to subpart A and to the rules 
in the subpart relating to the particular type of proceeding, if any. In 
addition, reference should be made to Subtitle VII of Title 49 of the 
United States Code (Transportation) (``the Statute''), and to the 
substantive rules, regulations and orders of the Department relating to 
the proceeding. Wherever there is any conflict between one of the 
general rules in subpart A and a special rule in another subpart 
applicable to a particular type of proceeding, the special rule will 
govern.
    (c) Reference to part and method of citing rules. This part may be 
referred to as the ``Rules of Practice''. Each section, and any 
paragraph or subparagraph thereof, may be referred to as a ``Rule''. The 
number of each rule need include only the numbers and letters at the 
right of the decimal point. For example, ``302.7 Service of documents'', 
may be referred to as ``Rule 7''.
