Current through 2024-51, December 18, 2024
If evidence is objected to at the hearing on the ground that it is not within the issues set out in the pleadings, the Board may allow the pleadings to be amended and shall do so freely when it will aid in the presentation of the merits of the action and the objecting party fails to satisfy the Board that the admission of that evidence would prejudice it in maintaining its action or defense upon the merits. The Board may grant a continuance to enable the objecting party to meet that evidence. Upon the request of a party at the conclusion of the hearing, the complaint or response may be specifically amended to conform to the evidence.
