§ 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 § 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.
