Section 13.8.2.13 - REVIEW OF FINAL ORDER

A. Reconsideration. The filer or any other party aggrieved by the superintendent's final order deciding the issues following a hearing, or refusing to grant a hearing, pursuant to 13.8.2.12 NMAC, may, in addition to other remedies provided by law, move for reconsideration, stating in detail the basis therefor. Any motion for reconsideration shall be filed within fifteen days of the superintendent's final order, and is barred thereafter. A motion for reconsideration is an optional remedy, and need not be exhausted as a condition of further administrative appeal.

B. Appeal. The filer or any party aggrieved by the superintendent's final order deciding the issues following hearing, or refusing to grant a hearing, pursuant to 13.8.2.12 NMAC, may request a review by the public regulation commission pursuant to this section.

(1) Following exhaustion of any right to hearing before the superintendent, the filer or any other aggrieved party may request the public regulation commission to review any final order of the superintendent made pursuant to 13.8.2.12 NMAC.

(2) Every such request for review shall be made within thirty days after the superintendent's final order, and is barred thereafter; provided, that if a motion for reconsideration is timely filed with the superintendent, a request for review shall be made within thirty days after the date the motion is filed.

(3) The public regulation commission's review shall be on the record before the superintendent, unless the public regulation commission in its discretion deems it necessary or appropriate to supplement the evidence through public hearing or otherwise; provided, that the scope of review shall be limited to the issues raised before the superintendent; and further provided, that the public regulation commission may summarily affirm or reverse the superintendent without hearing.

(4) Every request for review shall state with particularity the grounds upon which review is sought, and shall itemize each alleged error with citations to the applicable portions of the official record. If the transcript of record is not available despite appellant's prompt request therefor, citations shall be filed within ten days after the transcript first becomes available in substantially complete form. In any event, the request for review, with or without record citations must be timely filed within the time period specified in Paragraph (2) of Subsection B of 13.8.2.13 NMAC.

(5) The costs of transcribing the record shall be borne by the appellant.
