Section 427A.3315 - Hearings: Failure to appear1. If the complainant or the respondent fails to appear at a scheduled hearing and no continuance has been requested or granted, the Attorney for the Rights of Older Persons and Persons with a Physical Disability, an Intellectual Disability or a Related Condition may hear the evidence of witnesses who have appeared and may proceed to consider the matter and dispose of it on the basis of the evidence before him or her.2. Any person who fails to appear for a scheduled hearing or to request a continuance because of accident, sickness or other reasonable cause may, within 15 days after the failure, apply to the Attorney for the Rights of Older Persons and Persons with a Physical Disability, an Intellectual Disability or a Related Condition to reopen the proceedings.3. The Attorney for the Rights of Older Persons and Persons with a Physical Disability, an Intellectual Disability or a Related Condition, upon finding the cause to reopen the proceedings sufficient and reasonable, will immediately fix a time and place for the rescheduled hearing and give notice thereof.4. At the time and place fixed, a second hearing must be held at which the person who requested the second hearing may testify in his or her own behalf or present other evidence beneficial to his or her cause.5. Witnesses who have previously testified are not required to appear at a second hearing on the same matter unless so directed by the Attorney for the Rights of Older Persons and Persons with a Physical Disability, an Intellectual Disability or a Related Condition.Nev.
