A hearing scheduled before the Board shall not be delayed by motion for a continuance unless the motion is received in writing by the Board and the other parties six (6) calendar days before the scheduled hearing date and is served upon all parties on or before the sixth (6th) calendar day before the hearing. To be granted, the motion shall, in the opinion of the Board, set forth good and sufficient cause for the continuance.
An attorney who knows or should know of a scheduling conflict shall immediately, but no later than two (2) days before the scheduled hearing, file a motion for continuance with the Board, with copies submitted to the opposing party or parties. A scheduling conflict with another tribunal may be considered good cause for continuing the proceeding.
The granting of a continuance by the Board shall not be considered a waiver of requirements of this chapter, governing the time in which to file objections, petitions, or other pleadings.
The Board may, on motion of any party or on its own motion, continue a hearing in order to permit an ANC to vote on a material issue in the hearing or upon a determination that the interests of justice will be served by the granting of the continuance to any party.
The Board may, on the request of both the ANC and the applicant, extend the ANC's protest petition deadline for the sole purpose of allowing the ANC to vote on whether to support or protest the license application.
