11507.3. (a) When proceedings that involve a common question of law
or fact are pending, the administrative law judge on the judge's own
motion or on motion of a party may order a joint hearing of any or
all the matters at issue in the proceedings. The administrative law
judge may order all the proceedings consolidated and may make orders
concerning the procedure that may tend to avoid unnecessary costs or
delay.
(b) The administrative law judge on the judge's own motion or on
motion of a party, in furtherance of convenience or to avoid
prejudice or when separate hearings will be conducive to expedition
and economy, may order a separate hearing of any issue, including an
issue raised in the notice of defense, or of any number of issues.
