Any party entitled to a hearing before a hearing officer may waive such right in writing properly filed as any other pleading. Where parties are directed by any rule in the regulations to file a responsive pleading on or before a specified time, any party who fails to file such responsive pleading by the time specified may be deemed to have waived his right to a hearing. Unless all parties to the proceeding who are entitled to a hearing waive, or are deemed to have waived such right, a hearing will be held.
