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.
