The presiding officer may, on the officer's own motion or as
requested by a party, order hearings or argument to be held by telephone
conference or other electronic means in which all parties have an opportunity
to participate. The presiding officer will determine the location of the
parties and witnesses for telephone or other electronic hearings. The
convenience of the witnesses or parties, as well as the nature of the case,
will be considered when location is chosen. Disciplinary hearings will
generally not be held by telephone or electronic means in the absence of
consent by all parties, but the presiding officer may permit any witness to
testify by telephone or other electronic means. Parties will disclose at or
before the prehearing conference if any witness will be testifying by telephone
or other electronic means. Objections, if any, will be filed with the board and
served on all parties at least three business days in advance of
hearing.
