Ga. Comp. R. & Regs. R. 120-2-2-.40 - Closing of the Administrative Record

1. At the conclusion of the hearing, the Adjudicator, unless ordering otherwise, must close the administrative record. Once the administrative record is closed, no additional evidence will be accepted except upon a showing that the evidence is material and that there was good cause for failure to produce it prior to closing the administrative record.

2. Should the Adjudicator request the preparation of a transcript or require or authorize the filing of proposed findings of fact and conclusions of law, or briefs, the record shall be deemed closed upon the receipt of the transcript or upon the expiration of the time allowed for the required or authorized filings, whichever date is later.
