Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 1, January 10, 2025

Rule 1 CCR 104-3-20 - Case Information Sheet (CIS)

A. Unless otherwise ordered by an ALJ, and except for disfigurement only hearings under OACRP 10, the parties jointly, or each party individually, shall file and serve pursuant to OACRP 6, a Case Information Sheet (CIS) on a form provided by the OAC, or on a substantially similar form. Any CIS shall be filed and served no more than 20 days and no less than 5 days prior to the date set for the commencement of the hearing, or such other date established by an ALJ.

B. The purpose of the CIS is to permit the ALJ to determine the priority of the cases set, and to manage the docket more efficiently. The CIS is not discovery.

C. The CIS shall advise the ALJ as to whether the parties have conferred and made a good faith effort to resolve the issues set for hearing, the status of any discovery, the stipulations to be offered, the issues remaining for hearing, the names of the lay and expert witnesses to testify at the hearing, whether each witness shall testify in person or by telephone or by other electronic means, whether the witness will travel more than 100 miles for the hearing, the area of expertise of any expert witness, and whether an extension of time to commence the hearing has previously been granted.

D. Should a party fail to file a CIS, the ALJ may:

(1) strike the application for hearing without prejudice and vacate the hearing;

(2) issue an order to show cause why the issues or defenses should not be dismissed with prejudice;

(3) continue the hearing to a future date;

(4) continue the hearing and require the parties to attend a pre-hearing conference prior to proceeding to a hearing on the merits; or

(5) proceed to hearing on the merits.

E. If an interpreter has been requested pursuant to OACRP 21, the requesting party shall indicate on the CIS that an interpreter is required. The initial request for an interpreter shall be made consistent with OACRP 21, and not on the CIS form.
