6) To request a continuance, or extension of time to comply with any provision of this Part.

7) To request an order granting a rehearing, or additional hearings.

8) To request an order that the Comptroller or hearing officer reconsider its Findings of Fact, Conclusion of Law or Recommendation to the Comptroller or to request a new hearing or additional hearings.

9) To request that the Comptroller or hearing officer deem a failure to file an Answer to be an admission of the truth of the allegations contained in the Complaint.

10) To request employment of a hearing officer in a case where the Comptroller is presiding.

11) To request that a hearing officer be excluded from the hearing or deliberations, for cause as specified in Section 310.180(c).
