What is the name of your state?
I have an administrative hearing in March on an issue that I originally filed a grievance on, then appealed, then appealed to this hearing before an Administrative Law Judge. The respondent is the State Dept. of Health Services and I'm trying to define an issue about whether department employees who are also patients or consumers keep their patient rights afforded to them by law while on the job.
But what I need help with: I need to file a motion to: request a pretrial conference, and to ask that the respondent furnish me with his argument stating his position by a certain date. (At an administrative hearing neither side has to automatically give the other side this, or their witnesses, etc.) I also want to ask about subpoenas and a possible change of venue.
The Respondent has 3 lawyers. I really want this to sound like I'm halfway intelligent. Could someone help me draft this motion, I am blanking on how it should be worded?
Thank you~
