When in the course of a hearing the Administrative Law Judge finds a question of law, fact or policy that if resolved by the Commission will materially advance the resolution of the dispute, the Administrative Law Judge, on his or her own motion or the motion of one of the parties, may refer the issue to the Commission for resolution.
