Section 2725.245
Continuances
All requests for continuances of
hearings or pre-hearing conferences must be either in writing or on the record
and must set forth the reasons for such request. The Director's Representative
to whom the matter was assigned, or the supervisor if the Director's
Representative is not available, shall grant a continuance for good cause
shown, such as the unavailability of a witness or a party due to accident,
illness or circumstances beyond the person's control. In that event, the
hearing will be rescheduled to the earliest mutually agreeable time and date
and the agency will inform all parties of the date and time of the rescheduled
hearing.
