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.
