§ 17565. Rehearing.

Any party to the appeal, within 30 calendar days after service of a copy of the decision on such party, may apply for a rehearing by filing with the State Personnel Board a written petition therefor. Within 30 calendar days after such filing, a copy of the petition shall be served upon the other party to the proceedings. Within 60 calendar days after such service of the petition for rehearing, the State Personnel Board itself shall either grant or deny the petition in whole or in part. Failure to act upon a petition for rehearing within this 90-day period shall constitute a denial of the petition. If a rehearing is granted, the State Personnel Board may either rehear the case itself, decide the case on the pertinent parts of a prior hearing and such additional evidence and argument as the State Personnel Board shall in its discretion permit, or may refer the matter to a hearing officer.
