16-67-332. Petitions for rehearing.

(a) If a petition for rehearing is filed before the time for the decision to become final, as is specified in 16-67-324, all proceedings upon the decision and mandate therein shall be suspended until petition for rehearing shall be acted upon by the court.

(b) (1) However, the court in term time, or a judge thereof in vacation, may enlarge the time for filing petitions for rehearing, not exceeding thirty (30) additional days, and order that all proceedings upon the decision be stayed during such time. But the party applying for an extension or enlargement of the time for filing a petition for rehearing must do so within fifteen (15) judicial days from the time the decision was rendered and show good cause for the enlargement. Reasonable notice of the application must be first given the opposite party or his attorney of record.

(2) Any order for an extension of time made by a judge of the court shall be subject to the order of the court.
