Any party that is adversely affected by a resolution of the Reviewing Board in an issue discretionary in nature may file a motion for reconsideration within fifteen (15) calendar days after the copy of the resolution notice is filed in the record of the case. If such date is different from that of the filing in the record of the case, such term shall begin to count as of the date said notice is mailed or transmitted by any electronic means, whichever is first, as established by regulation. The adversely affected party that files a motion for reconsideration before the Reviewing Board shall notify all the parties about such motion by certified mail with return receipt requested or by any electronic means. Ten (10) calendar days after filing the motion for reconsideration, the complainee shall file his/her objection and the Reviewing Board shall rule over the same within thirty (30) calendar days following the date that the motion for reconsideration was duly filed by the adversely affected party. If the Reviewing Board comes to a determination with respect to the issue under its consideration, the term to resort to the Supreme Court shall begin to count as of the date on which a copy of the notice to the parties on the decision of the Reviewing Board resolving such motion for reconsideration is filed in the record of the case. If the Reviewing Board fails to take any action with respect to the motion for reconsideration within thirty (30) days after such motion was filed, it shall be understood that it has been denied outright and the term to resort to the Supreme Court shall begin to count after the thirty (30)-calendar-day-term to resolve the motion for reconsideration has elapsed. The above mentioned terms shall not be extendable. The filing of more than one motion for reconsideration by the same party shall not be permitted, should the first one be denied.
