If, before the VAB renders its final decision, a party communicates to the VAB an objection concerning a VAB process, recommended decision, or final decision, the VAB will furnish a copy of the communication to the opposing party and provide them with a reasonable opportunity to respond. The VAB’s legal counsel will then advise the VAB and/or the special magistrate as appropriate. The VAB will take appropriate action, which will vary depending on the circumstances.
