Any party is entitled, upon request, to a reasonable time for oral argument before the close of the hearing. Upon the agreement of all parties or at the direction of the hearing examiner, the parties may make oral or written closing arguments instead of filing post-hearing briefs.
Except as provided in § 552.1, any party may submit to the hearing examiner a brief meeting the requirements of §§ 502 and 561. Briefs must be filed no later than thirty-five (35) days after the transcript becomes available and the parties are so informed. The Executive Director may, for good cause shown, extend the time for the filing of briefs.
