It has been noted that pleadings filed after the grant of the certificate of public convenience (CPC), or even during the pendency of the proceeding, are signed or filed by persons other than the operators/applicants.  This results in dispositions affecting the CPC or application without the knowledge or consent of the operators/or applicants.

Considering that said pleadings, particularly those for sale and transfer of CPC with extension of validity, kabit legalization with extension of validity, dropping and/or substitution of units, motion for reconsideration, motion to lift the case from the archive, etc., are required to be verified and filed under the original case number, this Board hereby orders that, effective immediately, no pleading can be filed and accepted by the Receiving and Assessment Section unless the same is signed and/or verified by the operator or his duly appointed attorney-in-fact/ original applicant.
