Current through December 31, 2024
Section 477.955 - Failure to appear
1. Where the State Fire Marshal has served the petitioner with a notice of the time and place of the hearing and neither the petitioner nor the petitioner's attorney appears and that failure to attend is without good cause, the failure to attend constitutes a default.
2. A default taken pursuant to subsection 1 will have the effect of a finding of guilt and result in the imposition of administrative penalties as determined by the State Fire Marshal or the hearing officer.
3. The State Fire Marshal or the hearing officer may conduct a hearing in the absence of the petitioner at the time a default is taken to establish findings of fact or for other purposes, including, without limitation, to assess appropriate penalties, punitive action and other administrative actions.
4. If the failure to appear was for good cause, the party may, within 10 business days, make a new request for a hearing. The State Fire Marshal or the hearing officer will determine whether the failure to appear was for good cause and, if so, grant a new hearing.
