Sec. 1025.15  Time.

    (a) Computation. In computing any period of time prescribed or 
allowed by these rules, the day of the act, event, or default from which 
the designated period of time begins to run shall not be included. The 
last day of the period so computed shall be included, unless it is a 
Saturday, a Sunday, or a legal holiday, in which event the period runs 
until the end of the next day which is not a Saturday, a Sunday, or a 
legal holiday. When the period of time prescribed or allowed is less 
than seven (7) days, intermediate Saturdays, Sundays, and legal holidays 
shall be excluded in the computation. As used in this rule, ``legal 
holiday'' includes New Year's Day, Washington's Birthday, Memorial Day, 
Independence Day, Labor Day, Columbus Day, Veterans' Day, Thanksgiving 
Day, Christmas Day, and any other day declared as a holiday by the 
President or the Congress of the United States.
    (b) Additional time after service by mail. Whenever a party is 
required or permitted to do an act within a prescribed period after 
service of a document and the document is served by mail, three (3) days 
shall be added to the prescribed period.
    (c) Extensions. For good cause shown, the Presiding Officer may 
extend any time limit prescribed or allowed by these rules or by order 
of the Commission or the Presiding Officer, except for those sections 
governing the filing of interlocutory appeals and appeals from Initial 
Decisions and those sections expressly requiring Commission action. 
Except as otherwise provided by law, the Commission, for good cause 
shown, may extend any time limit prescribed by these rules or by order 
of the Commission or the Presiding Officer.
