WAC 388-02-0555. What happens when a party requests a corrected ALJ decision?

(1) When a party requests a corrected initial or final order, the ALJ must either: (a) Send all parties a corrected order; or (b) Deny the request within three business days of receiving it. (2) If the ALJ corrects an initial order and a party does not request review, the corrected initial order becomes final twenty-one calendar days after the original initial order was mailed. (3) If the ALJ denies a request for a corrected initial order and the party still wants the hearing decision changed, the party must request review by a review judge. (4) Requesting an ALJ to correct the initial order does not automatically extend the deadline to request review of the initial order by a review judge. When a party needs more time to request review of an initial order, the party must ask for more time to request review as permitted by WAC 388-02-0580 (2). (5) If the ALJ denies a request for a corrected final order and you still want the hearing decision changed, you must request judicial review.
