               Subpart A_Hearings Before Hearing Officers

 

Sec.  26.16  Time computation.



    (a) Generally. Computation of any period of time prescribed or 

allowed by this part shall begin with the first business day following 

the day on which the act, event, development or default initiating the 

period of time occurred. When the last day of the period computed is a 

Saturday, Sunday, or national holiday, or other day on which the 

Department of Housing and Urban Development is closed, the period shall 

run until the end of the next following business day. Except when any 

prescribed or allowed period of time is seven days or less, each of the 

Saturdays, Sundays, and national holidays shall be included in the 

computation of the prescribed or allowed period.

    (b) Extensions of time periods. The hearing officer (or in the case 

of a review under Sec.  26.25, the Secretary or designee) may upon 

motion enlarge the time within which any act required by these rules 

must be performed where necessary to avoid prejudicing the public 

interest or the rights of the parties.
