Section 3.110.660. Purpose of procedural regulations; relaxation or suspension of procedural regulations.

The purpose of the procedural requirements set out in 3 AAC 110.400 - 3 AAC 110.700 is to facilitate the business of the commission, and will be construed to secure the reasonable, speedy, and inexpensive determination of every action and proceeding. Unless a requirement is strictly provided for in the Constitution of the State of Alaska, AS 29,  or AS 44.33.810 - 44.33.849, the commission, by a vote of at least three members, may relax or suspend a procedural regulation if the commission determines that a strict adherence to the regulation would work injustice, would result in a substantially uninformed decision, or would not serve relevant constitutional principles and the broad public interest.
