Title 7 - Health and Social Services

Chapter 49 - Hearings
7 AAC 49.090 - Group hearings
The administrative law judge may consolidate a series of individual requests for hearing by conducting a single group hearing if the sole issue involved is one of state or federal law or policy, or changes in state or federal law or policy. A consolidation of requests does not affect the right of a member of the group to withdraw from the group before or during the group hearing in favor of an individual hearing, and does not affect the right of each member of the group to present the member's own case or be represented by the member's authorized representative at the group hearing. The administrative law judge shall inform each individual affected by a consolidation of requests that a consolidation has been made and that the right to individual withdrawal exists.
