NAC671.150. Hearings: Failure of party to appear.

If a party fails to appear at a hearing scheduled by the Commissioner or the designee of the Commissioner and a continuance has not been requested or granted, upon an offer of proof by the Division that the absent party was given proper notice and upon a determination by the Commissioner or the designee of the Commissioner that proper notice was given, the Commissioner or the designee of the Commissioner may proceed to consider the case without the participation of the absent party and may dispose of the matter on the basis of the evidence before the Commissioner or the designee of the Commissioner. If the respondent fails to appear at the hearing or fails to reply to the notice, the charges specified in the order may be considered as true.
