Current through Register Vol. 30, No. 38, September 20, 2024

A. All witnesses shall testify under oath or affirmation. All parties shall have the right to present oral or documentary evidence and to conduct cross-examination as required for a full and true disclosure of the facts. The hearing officer shall receive evidence, rule upon offers of proof, and exclude evidence the hearing officer determines to be irrelevant, immaterial, or unduly repetitious. The hearing officer shall admit the kind of evidence on which reasonably prudent people would rely, even if the evidence would be inadmissible in a civil court trial.

B. Unless otherwise ordered by the hearing officer, a party shall not present documentary evidence larger than 8 1/2 by 11 inches. The submitting party shall identify documentary exhibits by number or letter and party and shall furnish a copy of each exhibit to each party present. If evidence offered by a party appears in a larger work that contains other information, the party shall plainly designate the portion offered. If the evidence offered is in a volume of a length that would unnecessarily encumber the record, the hearing officer shall not receive the book, paper, or document in evidence but the evidence may be marked for identification and, if properly authenticated, the designated portion may be read into or photocopied for the record. All documentary evidence offered is subject to appropriate and timely objection.
