PART 259_INITIAL DETERMINATIONS AND APPEALS FROM INITIAL DETERMINATIONS 
WITH RESPECT TO EMPLOYER STATUS AND EMPLOYEE STATUS--Table of Contents
 
Sec. 259.6  Finality of determinations issued under this part.

    Any determination rendered by the Board at the initial or 
reconsideration stages shall be considered a final determination and 
shall be binding with respect to all parties unless reversed on 
reconsideration or upon judicial review. A final determination may be 
reopened at the request of a party who was, or could have been, a party 
to the final determination when the party alleges that the law or the 
facts upon which the final determination was based have changed 
sufficiently to warrant a contrary determination. Such a request shall 
be submitted to the Secretary to the Board, who shall consider such 
request as a request for an initial determination under Sec. 259.1.
