Practice Note Number 04

Application to Change Hearing Dates


Practice Note for Date:
12/12/2000




    ADMINISTRATIVE DECISIONS TRIBUNAL

    PRACTICE NOTE No. 4 (PN4/00)

    Application to Change Hearing Dates


    On 2 January 2001 the Tribunal will introduce a new policy on the applications for change of hearing dates that have been set in matters before the Tribunal and the Appeal Panel of the Tribunal. This policy will apply to all Divisions of the Tribunal.

    A hearing date will only be changed where it can be shown to the satisfaction of the Presiding Member that circumstances have arisen which are beyond the control of the parties or their representatives.

    A party wishing to make an application to change a hearing date will need to consult with the other party prior to making an application to the Tribunal. The application will need to be in writing setting out the reasons for the application and informing the Tribunal whether the other party consents or does not consent to the application.

    An application to change a hearing date by consent without explanation will not ordinarily be granted nor will applications based on practitioner unavailability.




    Judge KEVIN O’CONNOR
    President
