therefore 	the 	extraordinary 	circumstances 	which 	would 	justify

not 	been 	demonstrated.
lPERB 	rules 	are 	codified 	at 	title 	8, 	section 	31000
et 	seq. 	of 	the 	California Administrative 	Code. 	PERB 	rule 	32133
reads:
A late 	filing 	may 	be 	excused 	in 	the
discretion 	of 	the 	Board 	only 	under
extraordinary 	circumstances.

PERB Rule 32300(a) governs the filing of exceptions and
briefs in support thereof.2
