§ 607.330 Practice rules: Hearings: Failure to appear.

1. If the complainant or respondent fails to appear at a scheduled hearing and no continuance has been requested or granted, the commissioner or council may hear the evidence of witnesses who have appeared and may proceed to consider the matter and dispose of it on the basis of the evidence before it.

2. Any person who failed to appear for a scheduled hearing or to request a continuance because of accident, sickness or other reasonable cause may, within 15 days after the failure, apply to the commissioner or council to reopen the proceedings.

3. The commissioner or council, upon finding the cause sufficient and reasonable, will immediately fix a time and place for the hearing and give notice thereof.

4. At the time and place fixed, a hearing will be held at which the person may testify in his own behalf or present other evidence beneficial to his cause.

5. Witnesses who have previously testified need not appear at a second hearing on the same matter unless so directed by the commissioner or council.
