CASE NO. AVU-E-16-03
MOTION FOR
PROCEDURAL RELIEF
COMES NOW the Staff of the Idaho Public Utilities Commission, by and through its
attorney of record, Karl Klein, Deputy Attorney General, and respectively moves under Rule
256.03 of the Commission’s Rules of Procedure (IDAPA 31.01.01.256.03), for an Order
vacating the October 25, 2016 deadline for Staff/Intervenor prefiled direct testimony, as set in
Order No. 33555. Good cause exists to vacate the deadline because:
1. The parties have reached a settlement, and Staff expects the Company to
circulate a draft settlement agreement in the near future. The current
deadline for prefiled direct testimony, however, does not leave sufficient
time for the parties to review the draft, reach a final agreement, and then
prepare and submit testimony addressing it. Additionally, per Rule 274,
once the final agreement is filed the Commission will issue an Order and
Notice of Proposed Settlement prescribing procedures to consider the
settlement. If the Commission wishes to receive testimony about the
settlement, a new deadline for prefiled direct testimony can be established
in that Order.
2. All parties to the case have advised Staff that they concur with vacating
the deadline. The parties anticipate that this matter can be fully resolved
within that timeframe.
Accordingly,Staff respectfully requests that the Commission grant the Motion and
vacate the October 25,2016 deadline.”
Respectfully submitted this 14th day of October 2016.
