24 C.F.R. § 1720.255 Amendments and supplemental pleadings.
Title 24 - Housing and Urban Development
(a) Amendments. Prior to the receipt by the Docket Clerk for Administrative Proceedings of an answer to a notice or order, that notice or order may be amended as a matter of course. After the receipt of an answer, the administrative law judge may allow appropriate amendments to pleadings by motion whenever determination of a controversy on the merits will be facilitated thereby. (b) Variances of proof. When issues not raised by the pleadings but reasonably within the scope of the suspension notice or notice of proceedings are tried by express or implied consent of the parties, they shall be treated in all respects as if they had been raised in the pleadings; and such amendments of the pleadings as may be necessary to make them conform to the evidence and to raise such issues shall be allowed at any time. (c) Supplemental pleadings. The administrative law judge may, upon reasonable notice and such terms as are just, permit service of a supplemental pleading setting forth transactions or events which have occurred since the date of the pleading sought to be supplemented and which are relevant to any of the issues involved.
