  • 2020-28058 — Rules of Practice and Procedure
    💰
    Type:Proposed Rule
    Citation:86 FR 1857
    Reading Time:about 25 minutes

    The Department of Labor is proposing a new rule that would require attorneys and lay representatives to file documents electronically in cases before the Benefits Review Board. This rule aims to make the filing process more efficient and reduce traditional mailing costs by using an electronic case management system. Self-represented individuals can still choose to file documents either electronically or by traditional methods. The Department is inviting public comments on this proposed rule until February 10, 2021.

    Simple Explanation

    The Department of Labor wants lawyers to use computers to send documents instead of using regular mail when dealing with certain work cases. People who are not lawyers can still choose if they want to use the computer or not.
