§ 43:21-6.
a. If an authorized agent believes that a critical witness will not be available for
a scheduled hearing and requests a postponement in order to produce the witness, the
authorized agent shall, after consulting with the client, provide the division with
the name, address, and title of the witness, the reason the witness is unable to attend,
the general nature and importance of the witness's testimony, and an explanation of
why there is no other witness able to provide the essential testimony that the critical
witness would provide. Upon request, the authorized agent shall submit a written statement of its request
and supporting documentation or sworn affidavit to the division. b. If a postponement request is denied, the authorized agent shall notify the client
that the hearing will go forward as scheduled and advise the client to appear. In the event that a postponement request made pursuant to subsection a. of this
section is denied, the client shall be advised to appear with or without the critical
witness or another witness, and that it may renew the postponement request at the
hearing by requesting a continuance of the hearing. c. In the event that the client or agent does not appear at a scheduled hearing without
requesting a postponement, or that a postponement request is made but properly denied
and the agent or the client does not appear, no further hearings will be scheduled
at the request of the client or agent, unless the client or agent can demonstrate
to the satisfaction of a representative of the division that the failure to appear
was due to circumstances beyond the control of the client or agent.
