Section 1001
Section 1001.260  Rehearings
a)         A request by the petitioner for a rehearing will be granted if
good cause is shown. A request for a rehearing must be accompanied by a $50
filing fee, as provided in Section 1001.220(b).
b)         Good cause is shown when the petitioner is able to
demonstrate:
1)         that a real and compelling reason existed at the time of the
original hearing for his/her failing to appear due to unforeseen, unavoidable
or uncontrollable circumstances, such as an Act of God, the sudden illness or
death of the petitioner or a member of his/her immediate family, or of the
petitioner's legal counsel; or
2)         the recent discovery of new evidence that was not known to
exist or was not known to be available at the time of the original hearing.
Evidence will not be considered "new evidence" if it could have or
should have been discovered by the reasonable exercise of diligent inquiry
and/or effort by the petitioner.
c)         Rehearing requests must be in writing and directed to the
Secretary of State, Department of Administrative Hearings, Support Services,
Room 207, Howlett Building,  Springfield, Illinois 62756.
d)         If the interested party appears and the petitioner fails to
appear or withdraws, the hearing will be held and the testimony of the
interested party or any other witness present may be taken.  The evidence
admitted at the original hearing shall be admissible at a rehearing and the
petitioner shall be deemed to have waived the right of cross-examination of any
witnesses at the original hearing.
