Summary
The defendants in this case objected to the admissibility of the claimant’s evidence-in-reply on the grounds that it was not strictly in reply, and could have been filed at an earlier stage in the proceedings. The Hearing Officer found the evidence to be admissible but allowed the defendant an opportunity to file additional submissions in response.
