Rehearing request declined after reserved orders and filed submissions were already considered; procedural interference was unwarranted.

A request for rehearing was declined where the matter had already been heard, orders had been reserved, and the Adjudicating Authority had refused to recall its earlier refusal of further opportunity for final arguments. The Appellant had already filed a reply and written submissions, which were allowed to be considered. In those circumstances, no basis was found to disturb the procedural course adopted below, and the appeal was dismissed.

Issues: Whether the Appellate Tribunal should direct rehearing of the matter after the Adjudicating Authority had already reserved orders and had declined to recall its earlier order refusing further opportunity for final arguments.

Analysis: The matter had already been heard, the order had been reserved, and the request for setting aside that course had been rejected. The Appellant had also filed its reply and written submissions, which were permitted to be considered by the Adjudicating Authority. In these circumstances, no basis was found to require a rehearing or to interfere with the procedural course adopted below.

Conclusion: The request for a direction for rehearing was declined and the appeal was dismissed.
