Sec. 1.53  Separate pleadings for petitions for forbearance.

    In order to be considered as a petition for forbearance subject to 
the one-year deadline set forth in 47 U.S.C. 160(c), any petition 
requesting that the Commission exercise its forbearance authority under 
47 U.S.C. 160 shall be filed as a separate pleading and shall be 
identified in the caption of such pleading as a petition for forbearance 
under 47 U.S.C. 160(c). Any request which is not in compliance with this 
rule is deemed not to constitute a petition pursuant to 47 U.S.C. 
160(c), and is not subject to the deadline set forth therein.
