    The Board Liaison will request a copy of the record and transcript from the Office of Administrative Hearings upon receipt of your appeal letter.  The record and transcript will be forwarded to you for your information.

    All requests to postpone a hearing must be in writing, postmarked at least ten days BEFORE the hearing.  The request must provide a good reason (cause) to postpone.

    The Board will notify you of a new hearing date.  However, it may be as long as two (2) months (or more) from your original hearing date.

    2. A good reason (cause) for the postponement was not given; or
    3. The Board has received more than one (1) request for a postponement of this matter.
