Section R20-5-109. Admission into Evidence of Documents Con- tained in a Commission Claims File

A.      If a party or an administrative law judge considers a document contained in a Commission claims file, including a transcript of a prior proceeding, necessary or appropriate for hearing purposes, the administrative law judge shall receive a copy of the document into evidence if the document is otherwise admissible.

B.       With the permission of the administrative law judge, instead of submitting a copy of the document into evidence, a party may refer to the document’s location on the Commission’s optical disk imaging system by providing an accurate description of the document that includes the claimant’s claim number and image document identification number the Commission assigns to the document.
