R305-7-215. Interlocutory Orders

(1) Interlocutory review (review by the Executive Director before a final recommendation made by the ALJ) is not favored. Ordinarily, a party may challenge an order issued by the ALJ only after the ALJ has made a final recommended decision.

(2) A party may file, in accordance with R307-7-104, a motion for interlocutory review of a non-final ALJ order only if a ruling that is alleged to be in error could not be corrected through a challenge to the final recommended decision (e.g., a ruling denying privileged status to records), or where early resolution of a material issue may materially advance the termination of the proceeding.

(3) The Executive Director's determination to consider a motion for an interlocutory review is discretionary.
