53. Where an advocate replaces an advocate whose remuneration was governed by this Division or where an advocate’s remuneration becomes governed by this Division during the proceedings, the advocate must submit to the Commission a detailed application of the preparation time the advocate deems necessary to represent his or her client.

The Commission examines the application by taking into account the circumstances of the case and determines the maximum number of preparation periods which the advocate has instead of the preparation periods provided for in subparagraph 1 of the second paragraph of section 49 or section 51.
