Section 1:12-14.3 - Appeals hearings

(a) All appeals to the Board of Review may be heard upon the evidence in the record made before the appeal tribunal, or the Board of Review may direct the taking of additional evidence before it.

(b) In the hearing of an appeal on the record, the Board of Review may limit the parties to oral argument or the filing of written argument, or both. If, in the discretion of the Board of Review, additional evidence is necessary to enable it to determine the appeal, the parties shall be notified by the Board of Review of the time and place such evidence will be taken. Any party to any proceeding in which testimony is taken may present such evidence as may be pertinent to the issue.

(c) The Board of Review, in its discretion, may remand any claim or any issue involved in a claim to an appeal tribunal for the taking of such additional evidence as the Board of Review may deem necessary. Such testimony shall be taken by the appeal tribunal in the manner prescribed for the conduct of hearings on appeals before appeal tribunals. Upon the completion of the taking of evidence by an appeal tribunal pursuant to the direction of the Board of Review, the claim or the issue involved in such claim shall be returned to the Board of Review for its decision upon the entire record, including the evidence before the appeal tribunal and such additional evidence and such oral argument as the Board of Review may permit before it.

(d) The Board of Review, in its discretion, may remand any claim or any issue involved in a claim to an appeal tribunal for the taking of additional evidence and a decision or may remand for a new decision only.
