---------------------------------------------------------------------------

II. Description of the Proposed Rule Change

    FINRA initially proposed to adopt Rule 12905 of the Customer Code
and Rule 13905 of the Industry Code to permit submissions to
arbitrators after a case has closed only under the following
circumstances: (1) As ordered by a court; (2) at the request of any
party within 30 days of service of an award or notice that a matter has
been closed, for ministerial matters; or (3) if all parties agree and
submit documents within 30 days of service of an award or notice that a
matter has been closed.
    After reviewing the comments, FINRA amended its proposed rule
change on June 19, 2008, so that submissions to arbitrators after a
case has closed would only be permitted under the following
circumstances: (1) As ordered by a court; \6\ (2) at the request of any
party within 10 days of service of an award or notice that a matter has
been closed, for typographical or computational errors or mistakes in
the description of any person or property referred to in the award; or
(3) if all parties agree and submit documents within 10 days of service
of an award or notice that a matter has been closed.\7\ If the Director
determines submissions made pursuant to circumstances (2) and (3)
comply with the grounds for submission, the proposed rules would
require the Director to forward the submissions, along with any
responses from the parties, to the arbitrators. The arbitrators have
the discretion under the proposed rules to decline the requests made
pursuant to circumstances (2) and (3). Under the proposed rules, the
requests would be considered denied unless the arbitrators rule within
10 days after the Director forwards the documents. The proposed rules
would not allow any requests to extend the time period for the payment
of any award pursuant to Rule 12904 for customer disputes or to Rule
13904 for industry disputes.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ The Director, as defined in Rule 12100 of the Customer Code
and Rule 13100 of the Industry Code, will forward documents
submitted pursuant to this circumstance, along with any responses
from parties, to the arbitrators.
    \7\ Unilateral requests to reopen closed cases for expungement
relief would not be permitted (Conversation between Margo A. Hassan,
Counsel, FINRA and Lourdes Gonzalez, Assistant Chief Counsel--Sales
Practices, Office of Chief Counsel of the Division of Trading and
Markets, U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on July 10, 2008).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

III. Summary of Comments Received and FINRA Response

    As noted above, the Commission received 13 comment letters on the
proposed rules.\8\ Twelve commenters opposed the proposal; \9\ one
commenter supported the proposal but urged FINRA to make clear that the
time period to pay an award would not be extended by the proposed rule
change.\10\ A number of commenters argued that the term ``ministerial
matters'' lacked specificity and requested further clarification.\11\
Others predicted that permitting unilateral motions relating to
ministerial matters would increase litigation costs for parties and
that the rules would delay award payments.\12\ Several commenters
maintained that the rules would allow expungement to be accomplished
without any outside oversight.\13\ Other commenters suggested that the
rule change should not allow a member or associated person to extend
the 30-day period for payment of award.\14\ A number of commenters
stated that the proposed rule conflicts with the policy of finality in
arbitration.\15\ Several commenters argued that it is against the
public interest to allow a party to raise an issue it did not raise
during the hearing.\16\

    \16\ See, e.g., Cornell, Estell and PIABA letters.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In response to the comments, on June 19, 2008, FINRA filed
Amendment No. 1 to the proposed rule change to address potential
ambiguities in the rules and further limit the circumstances under
which a party may make a request under the rules. In particular, FINRA
proposed to shorten the time limit for requests made by the parties
from 30 to 10 days to expedite requests under the rules and to avoid
delays in award payments. FINRA also proposed to clarify that such a
request would not extend the time period for paying an award. In
addition, FINRA proposed to clarify the scope of the term ``ministerial
matters'' by limiting the grounds for unilateral requests to
typographical or computational errors, such as an addition mistake when
computing forum fees, or to mistakes in the description of a person or
property, such as an incorrect reference to the title of an account in
an award.
    Several commenters questioned whether there is sufficient need for
the proposed rules given what they view as the limited number of
requests to permit submissions to arbitrators after a case has
closed.\17\ FINRA responded that it receives an estimated 150 or more
such requests per year, which is a significant number in FINRA's
view.\18\ FINRA also stated that it believes the proposal would add
transparency to the forum's process for considering such requests.\19\

V. Discussion and Findings

    After careful review, the Commission finds that the proposed rule
change, as amended, is consistent with the requirements of the Act, and
the rules and regulations thereunder that are applicable to a national
securities association.\20\ In particular, the Commission finds that
the proposed rule change, as amended, is consistent with the provisions
of Section 15A(b)(6) of the Act, which provides that the rules of a
national securities association should be designed ``in general, to
protect investors and the public interest[.]'' The Commission concludes
that the proposed rule change would strictly limit the circumstances
under which a party would be permitted to submit documents to
arbitrators in closed cases, add transparency to the process for
considering such requests and support a fair arbitration process. The
Commission finds that it is in the public interest to approve the
proposed rule change as soon as possible to expedite its
implementation. Accordingly, the Commission believes good cause exists,
consistent with Sections 6(b)(5) and 19(b)(2) of the Act to approve on
an accelerated basis the proposed rule change as modified by Amendment
No. 1.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \20\ In approving this proposal, the Commission has considered
the proposed rule's impact on efficiency, competition and capital
formation. See 15 U.S.C. 78c(f).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

VI. Conclusion

    It is therefore ordered, pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the
Act,\21\ that the proposed rule change (SR-FINRA-2008-005), as modified
by Amendment No. 1 thereto, be, and hereby is, approved on an
accelerated basis.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    For the Commission, by the Division of Trading and Markets,
pursuant to delegated authority.\22\

Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.211 and

Applicant. In reference to filings initiating a new proceeding,
interventions or protests submitted on or before the comment deadline
need not be served on persons other than the Applicant.

interventions in lieu of paper, using the FERC Online links at http://www.ferc.gov.

access who will eFile a document and/or be listed as a contact for an
