Rehearing on unsigned dictated order rejected where no extraordinary ground existed and prior notice had already been given.

A dictated order is not ordinarily subject to recall or rehearing unless extraordinary grounds are shown. The department's request was rejected because it had prior notice of the statement said to be crucial, had adequate opportunity to address it at the hearing, and did not seek an adjournment when the matter was fully argued. The application was treated as an attempt to exploit delay in the signing of the order to obtain a second hearing, and it was held not maintainable.

Issues: Whether the application for rehearing could be entertained on the ground that the dictated order had not been signed and that the department had insufficient time to consider a statement said to be crucial.

Analysis: A dictated judgment is not to be recalled or reopened except for extraordinary reasons. The record showed that the department had notice of the relevant statement well before the hearing and did not seek adjournment when the matter was heard at length. The application was viewed as an attempt to take advantage of delay in issuance of the signed order to secure a rehearing.

Conclusion: The application for rehearing was not maintainable and was dismissed.
