If a civil penalty was imposed, the filing of a petition for reconsideration stays the entire action, unless the Agency Decisionmaker orders otherwise.\n(b) In the event a Notice of Default and Final Order is issued by the Field Administrator as a result of the respondent's failure to reply in accordance with § 386.14(a), the only issue that will be considered upon reconsideration is whether a default has occurred under § 386.14(c). The Final Order may be vacated where a respondent can demonstrate excusable neglect, a meritorious defense, or due diligence in seeking relief.\n(c) Either party may serve an answer to a petition for reconsideration within 30 days of the service date of the petition.\n(d) Following the close of the 30-day period, the Agency Decisionmaker will rule on the petition.\n(e) The ruling on the petition will be the Final Agency Order. A petition for reconsideration of the Agency Decisionmaker's ruling will not be permitted.","path":["Title 49—Transportation","Subtitle B—Other Regulations Relating to Transportation","CHAPTER III—FEDERAL MOTOR CARRIER SAFETY ADMINISTRATION, DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION","SUBCHAPTER B—FEDERAL MOTOR CARRIER SAFETY REGULATIONS","PART 386—RULES OF PRACTICE FOR FMCSA PROCEEDINGS","Subpart E—Decision"],"source_url":"https://www.ecfr.gov/api/versioner/v1/full/2026-08-25/title-49.xml","current_through":"2026-08-25","vintage":"","retrieved_at":"2026-08-27T02:26:34Z","sha256":"945b374715d91fbd7c78366a706d57f65bbcbf216376c28577763ab56182e5d5","source_id":"us-cfr","stale":true,"prev":"us/49-cfr-386.63","next":"us/49-cfr-386.65"},"notice":"GroundRules: Original legal text.
