Section 30604 - Grounds for Rehearing
(a) A rehearing will be granted where one of the following grounds for a rehearing exists and materially affects the substantial rights of the party seeking a rehearing:
(1) An irregularity in the appeal proceedings which occurred prior to issuance of the Opinion and prevented fair consideration of the appeal;
(2) An accident or surprise, occurring during the appeal proceedings and prior to the issuance of the Opinion, which ordinary caution could not have prevented;
(3) Newly discovered evidence, material to the appeal, which the party could not have reasonably discovered and provided prior to issuance of the Opinion;
(4) Insufficient evidence to justify the Opinion;
(5) The Opinion is contrary to law; or
(6) An error in law in the OTA appeals hearing or proceeding.
(b) For purposes of this regulation, the "contrary to law" standard of review shall involve a review of the Opinion for consistency with the law. A procedural "error in law" shall mean an error in the OTA appeals hearing or proceeding, other than a legal error in the Opinion. For example, the erroneous admission of evidence subject to attorney-client privilege, over the objection of the party petitioning for a rehearing, might be a basis for a rehearing due to an error in law if the error was material.
