Sec. 501.735  Proposed findings, conclusions and supporting briefs.

    (a) Opportunity to file. Before a decision is issued by the 
Administrative Law Judge, each party shall have an opportunity, 
reasonable in light of all the circumstances, to file in writing 
proposed findings and conclusions.
    (b) Procedure. Proposed findings of fact must be supported by 
citations to specific portions of the record. If successive filings are 
directed, the proposed findings and conclusions of the party assigned to 
file first shall be set forth in serially numbered paragraphs, and any 
counter statement of proposed findings and conclusions shall, in 
addition to any other matter presented, indicate those paragraphs of the 
proposals already filed as to which there is no dispute. A reply brief 
may be filed by the party assigned to file first, or, where simultaneous 
filings are directed, reply briefs may be filed by each party, within 
the period prescribed therefor by the Administrative Law Judge. No 
further briefs may be filed except with permission of the Administrative 
Law Judge.
    (c) Time for filing. In any proceeding in which a decision is to be 
issued:
    (1) At the close of each hearing, the Administrative Law Judge 
shall, by order, after consultation with the parties, prescribe the 
period within which proposed findings and conclusions and supporting 
briefs are to be filed. The party directed to file first shall make its 
initial filing not later than 30 days after the end of the hearing 
unless the Administrative Law Judge, for good cause shown, permits a 
different period and sets forth in the order the reasons why the 
different period is necessary.
    (2) The total period within which all such proposed findings and 
conclusions and supporting briefs and any counter statements of proposed 
findings and conclusions and reply briefs are to be filed shall be no 
longer than 90 days after the close of the hearing unless the 
Administrative Law Judge, for good cause shown, permits a different 
period and sets forth in an order the reasons why the different period 
is necessary.
