Sec.  821.11  Extensions of time.

    (a) On written request filed with the Board and served on all other 
parties, or oral request with any extension granted confirmed in writing 
and served on all other parties by the requestor, and for good cause 
shown, the law judge or the Board may grant an extension of time to file 
any document; however, no extension of time will be granted for the 
filing of a document to which a statutory time limit applies.
    (b) Extensions of time to file petitions for reconsideration shall 
not be granted upon a showing of good cause, but only in extraordinary 
circumstances.
    (c) The General Counsel is authorized to grant unopposed extensions 
of time on timely oral request without a showing of good cause in cases 
on appeal to the Board from a law judge's initial decision or appealable 
order. Written confirmation of such a grant of extension of time must 
promptly be sent by the requesting party to the Board and served on all 
other parties to the proceeding.
