Section 89. Rehearing before commissioner  


Latest version.
  • After an order has been made by
      the commissioner any corporation or person interested therein shall have
      the right to apply for a rehearing in respect to any  matter  determined
      therein,  but any such application must be made within thirty days after
      the service of such order, unless the commissioner for good cause  shown
      shall otherwise direct; and the commissioner shall grant and hold such a
      rehearing  if  in  his  judgment  sufficient  reason therefor be made to
      appear. The decision  of  the  commissioner  granting  or  refusing  the
      application  for  a rehearing shall be made within thirty days after the
      making of such application. If a rehearing shall be  granted,  the  same
      shall  be  determined  by  the commissioner within thirty days after the
      same shall be finally submitted.  An application for  such  a  rehearing
      shall  not  excuse  any  corporation  or  person  from complying with or
      obeying any order or any requirement of any order of  the  commissioner,
      or  operate  in  any  manner to stay or postpone the enforcement thereof
      except as the commissioner may by order direct. If, after such rehearing
      and a consideration of the facts,  including  those  arising  since  the
      making  of  the order, the commissioner shall be of the opinion that the
      original order  or  any  part  thereof  is  in  any  respect  unjust  or
      unwarranted,  or  should  be  changed,  the commissioner may abrogate or
      change the same. An order made after any such  rehearing  abrogating  or
      changing  the  original order shall have the same force and effect as an
      original order but shall not affect any right or the enforcement of  any
      right arising from or by virtue of the original order.
