Ill. Admin. Code tit. 11, § 1900.860 - Evidence
a) The hearing need
not be conducted according to the technical rules of evidence. Any relevant
evidence may be admitted and shall be sufficient in itself to support a finding
if it is the sort of evidence on which responsible persons are accustomed to
rely in the conduct of serious affairs, regardless of the existence of any
common law or statute that might make improper the admission of evidence over
objection in a civil action. Hearsay may support a finding of the ALJ if it has
sufficient indicia of trustworthiness and reliability and is of the type
reasonably and customarily relied on in the regular course of business.
1) Official Board records or certified copies
of the records shall be admissible into evidence if the records tend to prove
or disprove an allegation contained in the complaint.
2) Official Board records are documents
either prepared by or provided to the Board for the purpose of conducting its
regular business.
3) The Board
shall have an opportunity to investigate and verify information Petitioner
intends to offer in support of his case. Petitioner shall fully cooperate with
any such investigation or verification of Petitioner's information by the
Board. Petitioner shall not introduce into evidence any information that the
Board has not been afforded the opportunity to investigate and
verify.
b) To the fullest
extent possible, the parties should stipulate to all matters that are not or
fairly should not be in dispute.
c)
The parties may make objections to evidentiary offers. When an objection is
made, the ALJ may receive the disputed evidence subject to a ruling at a later
time.
d) The ALJ may take official
notice of any generally accepted information or technical or scientific matter
within the field of sports wagering, and any other fact that may be judicially
noticed by courts of this State. The parties shall be informed of any
information, matter or facts so noticed, including any staff memoranda or data,
and shall be given reasonable opportunity to refute that information.
