Parties may stipulate among themselves to any fact at issue in a contested case by written statement filed with the presiding officer or presented by oral statement at hearing. A stipulation binds all parties agreeing to it only according to its terms. The agency may regard a stipulation as evidence or may require proof by evidence of the facts stipulated. The presiding officer is not bound to adopt a stipulation of the parties, but may do so. If adopted, the presiding officer may regard a stipulation as evidence, or may require additional proof by evidence of the facts stipulated. If the presiding officer rejects a stipulation, they will do so before issuing their order, and will provide an additional opportunity for the parties to present evidence and arguments on the subject matter of the rejected stipulation.
