In order to insure timely determinations of eligibility for benefits, it shall be the general practice of the Administrator to deny postponement requests. The Administrator may grant a request for postponement in extraordinary circumstances where the rights of one or both parties would be substantially prejudiced by denying such a request and the effect of such denial could not be mitigated by the opportunity for submission of a statement or participation by telephone or other electronic means. The granting of any postponement request shall be at the sole discretion of the Administrator.
