affidavits, giving such evidence the weight it deems appropriate.

(c) Hearings to be Reported or Electronically Recorded. The hearing
panel shall ensure that all hearings are reported or electronically recorded.

(d) Hearing Procedure. At the hearing, both the hearing panel and the
court interpreter shall be afforded the opportunity to introduce documents and
other relevant evidence, and to elicit sworn testimony.

(e) Hearing Panel Deliberations. Following the presentation of
evidence, the hearing panel shall deliberate regarding its decision. Such
deliberations shall take place in private.

(f) Finality of Decision; Rehearing. Unless the court interpreter files a
request for rehearing within 30 days of the date of the decision, the decision shall
become final without further action. If a timely request for rehearing is filed, the
decision shall not become final until the request has been disposed of by written
decision, a copy of which shall be sent to the court interpreter by certified United
States mail.
