La. Admin. Code tit. 46, § XLV-9913 - Motions for Continuance of Hearing
A. A motion for continuance of hearing shall
be filed within the delay prescribed by
§9911 of these rules, provided that the
board may accept the filing of a motion for continuance at any time prior to
hearing upon a showing of good cause not discoverable within the time otherwise
provided for the filing of prehearing motions.
B. A scheduled hearing may be continued by
the board only upon a showing by respondent or complaint counsel that there are
substantial legitimate grounds that the hearing should be continued balancing
the right of the respondent to a reasonable opportunity to prepare and present
a defense to the complaint and the board's responsibility to protect the public
health, welfare, and safety. Except in extraordinary circumstances evidenced by
verified motion or accompanying affidavit, the board will not ordinarily grant
a motion to continue a hearing that has been previously continued upon motion
of the same party.
C. If an initial
motion for continuance is not opposed, it may be granted by the executive
director.
