The application must be made within 42 days after the order containing the decision is made, unless a longer period is allowed by the court.
The Land Court must not grant leave for the matter to be reheard unless satisfied the decision is based wholly or partly on a mistake of fact.
If the application is granted, the matter must be reheard, if practicable, by the member who gave the decision on which the rehearing is sought.
