    (a) Purpose of a motion. Subsequent to the issuance of a Notice of 
Hearing in a representation proceeding, a party seeking a ruling, an 
order, or relief must do so by filing or raising a motion stating the 
order or relief sought and the grounds therefor. Challenges and other 
filings referenced in other sections of this subpart may, in the 
discretion of the Regional Director or Hearing Officer, be treated as a 
motion.
    (b) Prehearing motions. Prehearing motions must be filed in writing 
with the Regional Director. Any response must be filed with the Regional 
Director within five (5) days after service of the motion. The Regional 
Director may rule on the motion or refer the motion to the Hearing 
Officer.
    (c) Motions made at the hearing. During the hearing, motions will be 
made to the Hearing Officer and may be oral on the record, unless 
otherwise required in this subpart to be in writing. Responses may be 
oral on the record or in writing, but, absent permission of the Hearing 
Officer, must be provided before the hearing closes. When appropriate, 
the Hearing Officer will rule on motions made at the hearing or referred 
to the Hearing Officer by the Regional Director.
    (d) Posthearing motions. Motions made after the hearing closes must 
be filed in writing with the Regional Director. Any response to a 
posthearing motion must be filed with the Regional Director within five 
(5) days after service of the motion.
