A party to a proceeding can ask the Commission for a rehearing of any matter decided in that proceeding. Asking for a rehearing does not pause ("stay") the order, unless the Commission says so. (d) How long an order lasts. A Commission order stays in effect for the time stated in the order. It stays in effect until the Commission, or a court with authority, suspends, changes, or cancels it.
