OBJECTION TO EXTENSION REQUEST
The Complainant objects to the request to extend to June 29, 2004 and in support ofsaid
motion
states:
1,
The request is unclear as to what is being extended, but it is
assumed that Respondent
wants the time for his post hearing brief extended,
2.
No reasons are given as to why the Respondent did not
file a brief In response to
Complainants brief which was filed on April
14, 2004 seven weeks prior to
Respondent’s June 2, 2004 due date.
3.
This case is over three years
old and the charges are twenty years old. A very lenient
briefing schedule was set by the hearing officer in the first place.
4:
While it is true that the Respondent is pro se, he is not disabled
in any way and has
understood all ofthe schedules that have heretofore been ordered.
5.
The request was madeby Respondent only after the hearing officer called David N.
Stone on June 21, 2004 and asked for the Respondent’s telephone number so he could
call and inquire about his failure to file a post hearing brief, stating that since he is pro
se, “the board tends to bend over backwards” apparently referring to concerns that the
Respondent be given a full measure ofdue process.
6.
Due process is to be applied to all ofthe litigants, not just the pro se litigants.
7.
It would be an abuse ofdiscretion for the hearing officer or the board. to grant an
extension.
8.
This Respondent has been givenmore than “full due process” in this case,
9.
Its time for the People to be given a measure of“due process” by denying this very
late request for extension.
