5.3 - Motion Limits

Certain motions are limited in time (when the motions must be filed) and number (how many motions may be filed).  Pre-decision motions are limited in time.  See Chapter 3.1(b) (Timing of Submissions). Motions to reopen and motions to reconsider are limited in both time and number.  See Chapters 5.7 (Motions to Reopen), 5.8 (Motions to Reconsider), 5.9 (Motions to Reopen In Absentia Orders). Time and number limits are strictly enforced.
