                   CHAPTER I--FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION
 
PART 5_STANDARDS OF CONDUCT--Table of Contents
 
  Subpart E_Disciplinary Actions Concerning Postemployment Conflict of 
                                Interest
 
Sec. 5.61  Prehearing procedures; motions; interlocutory appeals; summary 
decision; discovery; compulsory process.

    Because of the nature of the issues involved in proceedings under 
this part, the Commission anticipates that extensive motions, prehearing 
proceedings and discovery will not be required in most cases. For this 
reason, detailed procedures will not be established under this part. 
However, to the extent deemed warranted by the presiding official, 
prehearing conferences, motions, interlocutory appeals, summary 
decisions, discovery and compulsory process shall be permitted and shall 
be governed, where appropriate, by the provisions set forth in subparts 
C and D, part 3, of the Commission's Rules of Practice.
