You or your witness may participate by telephone at your hearing or mediation if you have a good reason. You must try to get the other party to agree.  After you have tried to reach the other party, complete this form, send it to the other party and file it with the Office of Administrative Hearings.  You will be contacted and told if the date has been changed.  If you do not hear from the Office of Administrative Hearings, the date has not been changed.  Lawyers and representatives may NOT participate by telephone.
