N.J. Admin. Code § 6A:28-1.8

Current through Register Vol. 56, No. 21, November 4, 2024

Section 6A:28-1.8 - Relaxation of rules

(a) The rules in this chapter shall be considered general rules of practice to govern, expedite, and effectuate the Commission's implementation and enforcement of the Act. Rules that do not reflect a specific statutory requirement or an underlying rule of the OAL may be relaxed or dispensed with by the Commission, in its discretion, in any case where a strict adherence thereto may be deemed inappropriate or unnecessary or may result in injustice.

(b) The Commission maintains the authority to provide, in extraordinary circumstances, relief to school officials who are unable to comply with the requirements of this chapter. Extraordinary circumstances include, without limitation, when a school official is engaged in military service or is gravely ill. The issuance of extraordinary relief does not relieve the school official from compliance once the period of relief expires.
