Sec. 1.48  Length of pleadings.

    (a) Affidavits, statements, tables of contents and summaries of 
filings, and other materials which are submitted with and factually 
support a pleading are not counted in determining the length of the 
pleading. If other materials are submitted with a pleading, they will be 
counted in determining its length; and if the length of the pleadings, 
as so computed, is greater than permitted by the provisions of this 
chapter, the pleading will be returned without consideration.
    (b) It is the policy of the Commission that requests for permission 
to file pleadings in excess of the length prescribed by the provisions 
of this chapter shall not be routinely granted. Where the filing period 
is 10 days or less, the request shall be made within 2 business days 
after the period begins to run. Where the period is more than 10 days, 
the request shall be filed at least 10 days before the filing date. (See 
Sec. 1.4.) If a timely request is made, the pleading need not be filed 
earlier than 2 business days after the Commission acts upon the request.
