Nev. Admin. Code § 233.190 - Failure to appear at hearing; rehearings

1. If a party fails to appear at a public hearing scheduled by the Commission and no continuance has been granted, the Commission may proceed to consider the matter and dispose of it on the basis of the evidence before it.

2. Where, because of accident, illness or an unforeseen event that requires immediate attention, a party fails to appear at a public hearing scheduled by the Commission, he may, within 10 days after the scheduled hearing, apply to the Commission, hearing commissioner or officer to reopen the proceedings. Upon a finding of sufficient cause, the Commission may fix a time and place for a rehearing and give reasonable notice to all parties. At the rehearing, a party may testify and present evidence that is relevant and material to the issues. The Commission will deem testimony and other evidence introduced previously at the public hearing as part of the record and will consider this testimony and evidence in its final determination of the case.
