§ 95.45. Continuances.
(a) Motions for a continuance made prior to a hearing shall be in writing, shall be filed with the Board at Harrisburg, and shall set forth the reasons for a continuance and the position of all parties or their representatives to the request. The motion may not be acted upon by the Board unless it is filed at least 72 hours prior to the hearing, and the ruling of the Board shall be final. Upon good cause shown, the 72 hour provision or the necessity of a written motion may be waived at the discretion of the Board.
(b) Conflicting engagements of counsel, whether before a court of record or an administrative tribunal, shall normally not constitute sufficient grounds for a continuance of any proceeding before the Board, unless the date for the appearance of counsel in the conflicting engagement was fixed before receipt of notice of the proceeding before the Board.
(c) Agreement of counsel may not of itself be sufficient cause for the granting of a continuance.
(d) At a hearing, the hearing examiner subject to the approval of the Board, may continue the hearing from day to day, or to adjourn it to a later date or a different place, by announcement of the change at the hearing or by other appropriate notice.
