400.12 Proposed findings of fact.
Any party may submit proposed findings of fact within time limitations set by the administrative law judge. Such findings of fact shall be captioned, entitled as such, shall be consecutively numbered and shall be typed legibly on plain, white bond, standard weight paper, 8 1/2 × 11 inches in size. Such proposed findings of fact shall recite basic facts and not evidentiary facts and shall not be conclusions of law. A basic fact would be “John Jones visited Syracuse,” and not “John Jones testified that he visited Syracuse,” which is an evidentiary fact. A conclusion of law would be “John Jones has demonstrated untrustworthiness within the meaning of section 441-c of the Real Property Law.” In general, it is expected that the complaint will allege the basic facts which would otherwise be contained in a statement of proposed findings of fact. In accordance with section 301(1) of the State Administrative Procedure Act, the person assigned to render a decision will rule on each finding of fact. Such decision maker will do so by marking the instrument setting forth the proposed findings of fact a part of the decision and noting in the margin thereof the ruling, i.e.,“Found,” “Not Found,” “Irrelevant,” “Evidentiary,” “Conclusion of Law,” which rulings may be abbreviated meaningfully. The body of the decision will contain such findings of fact as the decision maker deems relevant, but need not be expressed in the same language as presented in the proposed findings.
