So, if I'm understanding , OAH has strict deadline to have hearing , but is totally open ended to make a ruling ?
They have 90 days to issue a ruling on the case.

I have no problem with tight deadlines as long as the rules are applied to both parties fairly. After all a judge is supposed to be an impartial arbiter of the law. Would be interesting to see what would happen if the appeal date and time came up and MSP failed to show up. I assume when MSP is called as a witness, if the fail to appear their input is not considered in deciding the case. Yes?
I wonder what will happen if the MSP-LD provide no information on why they appealed and continue to with-hold information so you can not have time to mount a strong case against them .
Their game = Their rules
Is there anyone willing to smack their Pee-Pee if they play fast and loose ??? that is the million dollar question .
My understanding is there are procedures to remove sitting judges that don't follow the rules. Does the administrative hearing officer (judge?)fall under those same rules?
So, after attending the last HPRB meeting, the MSP said that as a matter of practice, they intimidate business owners into rescinding their support for concealed carry of their employees. Additionally the Vice Chairman read the law and it states that the records of the investigation are to be turned over to the HPRB, but they responded that the law didn't say they had to turn over "ALL" records, I doubt there will be such a thing as a fair hearing.

An argument could be made that the Troopers and/or investigators and the agency itself is conducting the unauthorized practice of law. The government has no responsibility to tell an employer what "may" happen. That is bordering on practicing law at the least if not outright coercion.

Once upon a time I waited 119 days for somthing "required " in 7 days . And almost a year for somthing " required" in 90 days . Most of the HPRB cases are 7-10 months old .
The usual Md Gov't procedures are " We're busy . Go away, we'll get back to you later " .

Can an applicant record the meeting with MSP in order to document possible coercion?
