Cal. Code Regs. Tit. 22, § 5068 - Vacating Decision
(a)
If a party fails to appear in any day of a hearing and an administrative law
judge issues a decision on the merits adverse to that party's interest, the
party may file an application to vacate the decision within 30 days after
service of the decision. The application shall specify the reason for vacating
the decision. If the application is untimely, it shall also specify the reason
for the delay.
(b) If the
application fails to specify the reason for vacating the decision, or, if
applicable, for its untimeliness, an administrative law judge may serve notice
requiring the applicant to specify the reason by filing it within 10 days after
service of such notice. If the applicant fails to comply, an administrative law
judge may order the application to vacate the decision denied.
(c) If the reason specified by the applicant
shows that there is no good cause for vacating the decision, or, if applicable,
for the untimely application, an administrative law judge may order the
application to vacate the decision denied.
(d) An application to vacate a decision that
is not otherwise denied in accordance with this rule shall be scheduled for
hearing. If the applicant shows good cause for vacating the decision, and, if
applicable, for the untimely application, the decision shall be ordered
vacated; otherwise the application to vacate the decision shall be ordered
denied.
(e) If an applicant fails
to appear in the hearing on an application to vacate a decision, an
administrative law judge may order the application denied.
(f) If a party that has grounds to file an
application to vacate a decision files what purports to be a board appeal, it
shall be treated as an application to vacate the decision, unless the
application or the party clearly states to the contrary.
(g) Upon service of an order denying an
application to vacate a decision, the applicant shall be deemed to have filed a
board appeal of the denial of the application to vacate, and also of the
original adverse decision which was the subject of the application to
vacate.
(h) An order vacating a
decision is appealable to the board only upon service of an adverse decision or
order on the appeal or petition.
