Sec. 406.121  Extension of time.

    Before an appeal is filed with the FAA decisionmaker, the parties 
may seek an extension of time as follows:
    (a) Extension of time by agreement of the parties. The parties may 
agree to extend for a reasonable period of time for filing a document 
under this subpart with the agreement of the administrative law judge. 
The party seeking the extension of time must submit a draft order to the 
administrative law judge for signature, file it with the Federal Docket 
Management System, and serve it on each party.
    (b) Motion for extension of time. If the parties do not agree to an 
extension of time for filing a document, a party desiring an extension 
may file with the Federal Docket Management System and serve a written 
motion for an extension of time not later than 7 days before the 
document is due unless good cause for the late filing is shown. The 
administrative law judge may grant the extension of time if good cause 
for the extension is shown.
    (c) Failure to rule. If the administrative law judge fails to rule 
on a written motion for an extension of time by the

date the document is due, the motion for an extension of time is granted 
for no more than 20 days after the original date the document was to be 
filed.
