A. Hearings before the administrative law judge shall be held, insofar as practicable, at the county seat of the county in which the establishment of the applicant or licensee is located, or, if the establishment is located within the corporate limits of any city, then in such city. However, if it is located in a county or city within a metropolitan area in which the Virginia Alcoholic Beverage Control Authority maintains a hearing room in a district office, such hearings may be held in such hearing room. Notwithstanding this subsection, administrative law judges may conduct hearings at locations convenient to the greatest numbers of persons in order to expedite the hearing process. Hearings may also be held via telephone or virtually.

B. At any hearing held by an administrative law judge, any person hindering the orderly conduct or decorum of the hearing shall be guilty of a violation of this regulation and shall be subject to the penalty prescribed by § 4.1-349 of the Code of Virginia.
