from fraud or coercion. A motion for reinstatement must be filed within 60 days
of service of the letter, order or decision or, in the event of fraud which
could not have been suspected or discovered with the exercise of reasonable
diligence, within 60 days of discovery of such fraud. The motion shall be accompanied
