OAR 137-003-0045
Telephone Hearings

(1)

Unless precluded by law, the agency may, in its discretion, hold a hearing or portion of a hearing by telephone. Nothing in this rule precludes an agency from allowing some parties or witnesses to attend by telephone while others attend in person.

(2)

The agency may direct that a hearing be held by telephone upon request or on its own motion.

(3)

The agency shall make an audio or stenographic record of any telephone hearing.

(4)

If a hearing is to be held by telephone, each party and the agency shall provide, before commencement of the hearing, to all other parties and to the agency and hearing officer copies of the exhibits it intends to offer into evidence at the hearing. If a witness is to testify by telephone, the party or agency that intends to call the witness shall provide, before commencement of the hearing, to the witness, to the other parties and to the agency and hearing officer a copy of each document about which the witness will be questioned.

(5)

Nothing in this rule precludes any party or the agency from seeking to introduce documentary evidence in addition to evidence described in section (4) during the telephone hearing and the presiding officer shall receive such evidence, subject to the applicable rules of evidence, if inclusion of the evidence in the record is necessary to conduct a full and fair hearing. If any evidence introduced during the hearing has not previously been provided to the agency and to the other parties, the hearing may be continued upon the request of any party or the agency for sufficient time to allow the party or the agency to obtain and review the evidence.

(6)

The agency may delegate to the presiding officer the discretion to rule on issues raised under this rule.

(7)

As used in this rule, “telephone” means any two-way electronic communication device, including video conferencing.
