(6.54) What is a pre-hearing conference?

Generally, the ALJ assigned to the case will hold a conference by telephone with you, the district and the attorneys, if any, before the hearing, to discuss hearing date(s) and location, length of hearing, dispute issues, exchange and marking of exhibits and witness lists, witness testimony and scheduling, and other matters. After the conference, the ALJ will mail you a pre-hearing order which summarizes the conference.
