Sec. 1603.206  Consolidation and severance of hearings.

    (a) The administrative law judge may, upon motion by a party or upon 
his or her own motion, after providing reasonable notice and opportunity 
to object to all parties affected, consolidate any or all matters at 
issue in two or more adjudications docketed under this part where common 
parties, or factual or legal questions exist; where such consolidation 
would expedite or simplify consideration of the issues; or where the 
interests of justice would be served. For purposes of this section, no 
distinction is made between joinder and consolidation of adjudications.
    (b) The administrative law judge may, upon motion of a party or upon 
his or her own motion, for good cause shown, order any adjudication
