Sec. 1316.62  Appeal from ruling of presiding officer.

    Rulings of the presiding officer may not be appealed to the 
Administrator prior to his consideration of the entire hearing, except 
with the consent of the presiding officer and where he certifies on the 
record or in writing that the allowance of an interlocutory appeal is 
clearly necessary to prevent exceptional delay, expense, or prejudice to 
any party or substantial detriment to the public interest. If an appeal 
is allowed, any party in the hearing may file a brief in quintuplicate 
with the Administrator within such period that the presiding officer 
directs. No oral argument will be heard unless the Administrator directs 
otherwise.
