Utah Admin. Code R994-508-202 - Petition for Approval of Fee

(1) If a fee is to be charged, a written petition for approval must be submitted by the claimant's representative to the ALJ before whom the representative appeared, or to the supervising ALJ if no hearing was scheduled. An approval form can be obtained through the Appeals Unit. Prior to approving the fee, a copy of the petition will be sent to the claimant and the claimant will be allowed ten days from the date of mailing to object to the fee. At the discretion of the ALJ, the fee may be approved as requested, adjusted to a lower amount, or disallowed in its entirety.

(2) If the case is appealed to the Board level, the claimant's representative must file a new petition with the Board if additional fees are requested.
