Title 38 CFR: Pensions, Bonuses, and Veterans' Relief › Chapter I: DEPARTMENT OF VETERANS AFFAIRS › Part 20: BOARD OF VETERANS' APPEALS: RULES OF PRACTICE › Subpart K: Vacatur and Reconsideration › § 20.1003: § 20.1003 Rule 1003. Hearings on reconsideration.
Text
After a motion for reconsideration has been allowed, a hearing will be granted if the issue under reconsideration was considered on a docket for cases that may include a hearing, and an appellant requests a hearing before the Board. The hearing will be held by a Member or Members assigned to the reconsideration panel. A hearing will not normally be scheduled solely for the purpose of receiving argument by a representative. Such argument should be submitted in the form of a written brief. Requests for appearances by representatives alone to personally present argument to a Member or panel of Members of the Board may be granted if good cause is shown. Whether good cause has been shown will be determined by the presiding Member.
