State Fair Hearing regulations authorize the issuance of corrected decisions where there is a production error or an error of law or fact [18 NYCRR § 358-6.6(a)] and also authorize the reopening of previously closed Fair Hearing records to complete the records [18 NYCRR § 358-6.6(b)]. See the article on Corrected/Amended Fair Hearing Decisions.
