Background

In March 1992, we reprinted the Hearings, Appeals and Litigation Law (LEX) manual (HALLEX), Volume I, in a bound edition. We made a limited distribution to each Administrative Law Judge and decision writer in the field, as well as all Administrative Appeals Judges and their support staffs in Headquarters. When we released the HALLEX bound version, we indicated that we plan to issue a new bound edition annually with periodic supplements. Attached are all transmittals approved for Volume I, Division 1, General Subjects, since the bound edition was issued.

This transmittal updates HALLEX, Volume I, Division 1 and includes the following:

Action

Associate these transmittals with the appropriate chapter in the bound version. HALLEX users who did not receive a bound edition, should file the attached transmittals in the loose leaf binders.
