Continuances

(1) All requests for continuances shall be made in writing as soon as reasonably practicable and shall, except in the event of an unforeseen emergency, be received no later than 48 hours prior to the scheduled date and time of hearing. Such requests may be granted at the discretion of the Appeals Tribunal or the Board of Review.
