# §2200.62. Postponement of hearing.

- (a) **Motion to postpone.** A hearing may be postponed by the Judge on the Judge's own initiative or for good cause shown upon the motion of a party. A motion for postponement shall state the position of the other parties, either by a joint motion or by a representation of the moving party. The filing of a motion for postponement does not automatically postpone a hearing. The form and content of such motions shall comply with [§ 2200.40](/cfr/29/2200.40.md).
- (b) **Grounds for postponement.** A motion for postponement grounded on conflicting engagements of counsel or employment of new counsel shall be promptly filed.
- (c) **When motion must be received.** A motion to postpone a hearing must be received at least 10 days prior to the hearing. A motion for postponement received less than 10 days prior to the hearing will generally be denied unless good cause is shown for late filing.
- (d) **Postponement in excess of 60 days.** No postponement in excess of 60 days shall be granted without the concurrence of the Chief Administrative Law Judge. The original of any motion seeking a postponement in excess of 60 days shall be filed with the Judge and a copy sent to the Chief Administrative Law Judge.
