An SCU adjustment submission (FCA § 413) includes an affidavit with findings, a proposed adjusted order, and a notice to parties, filed with the clerk within 10 days of mailing to parties. ★ A written objection within 35 days of mailing → the court schedules a hearing. No timely objection → the court signs (if SSL § 111-h and FCA § 413 met) and, absent unusual circumstances, signs or dismisses within 10 business days after the 35-day window. ★
