Current through September 24, 2024
A. The hearing process is initiated by a written request and can be terminated only by a written statement in which the client or representative withdraws the request for a hearing.
B. A state or local hearing request may be withdrawn at any time prior to the scheduled hearing or after the hearing is held, but before a decision is rendered. As indicated, the withdrawal must be in writing and signed by the client or representative.
C. A hearing request will be considered abandoned if the client or representative fails to appear or is unavailable for a scheduled hearing without good cause. If no one is available for a hearing, the appropriate office will notify the client in writing that the hearing is dismissed unless good cause is shown for not attending. Following failure to appear for a hearing, the proposed adverse action will be taken on the case if the action is not already in effect.
