Oregon Code § 756.561·Enacted ·Last updated March 01, 2026
Statute Text
Rehearing; reconsideration.
(1) After an order has been made by the Public Utility Commission in any
proceeding, any party thereto may apply for rehearing or reconsideration
thereof within 60 days from the date of service of such order. The commission
may grant such a rehearing or reconsideration if sufficient reason therefor is
made to appear.
(2) No such
application shall excuse any party against whom an order has been made by the
commission from complying therewith, nor operate in any manner to stay or
postpone the enforcement thereof without the special order of the commission.
(3) If a
rehearing is granted, the proceedings thereupon shall conform as nearly as
possible to the proceedings in an original hearing, except as the commission
otherwise may direct. If in the judgment of the commission, after such
rehearing and the consideration of all facts, including those arising since the
former hearing, the original order is in any respect unjust or unwarranted, the
commission may reverse, change or modify the same accordingly. Any order made
after such rehearing, reversing, changing or modifying the original
determination is subject to the same provisions as an original order. [Formerly
