Summary

The Appellant Notification module will notify an appellant when a scheduled hearing for their appeal has been postponed. There are two different ways in which a hearing is postponed.

  1. A hearing coordinator chooses to postpone the hearing on the appeal's case details page. The hearing's disposition is set to "postponed" and the hearing tasks for the appeal are also updated to be cancelled.
  2. A hearing coordinator chooses to postpone the hearing on the daily docket. The hearing's disposition is set to "postponed".
