Effect of filing

(a) The filing with the Office of the Treasurer of any application, petition, complaint, or any other filing of any nature whatsoever shall not relieve any person of the obligation to comply with any statute, regulation or order of the Treasurer. (b) Unless the Treasurer provides otherwise in writing, accepting the filing of any non-conforming petition, application, exhibit, annex, or document of any kind whatsoever, shall not be construed as a waiver of compliance with sections 3-11-6 to 3-11-25, inclusive, of these rules. (c) Any petition or application filed for the purpose of securing from the Treasurer an approval or grant of permission under sections 3-11-6 to 3-11-25, inclusive, of these regulations and any supporting evidence annexed or filed as part of such petition or application shall be public records, except when expressly excluded by law. Such public records will include and not be limited to all written forms, required components, pre-filed testimony, exhibits, and other evidence attached to the application as part thereof. (Effective December 28, 1993)
