N.Y. Comp. Codes R. & Regs. tit. 17, § 503.1 – Proceedings without hearings.

(a) In all proceedings where no hearing has been directed, a decision in the proceeding may be made on the basis of the submitted documents, protests, affirmations, sworn statements, and matters of which official notice may be taken, including records of the department. The presiding officer will advise the parties as to the dates when such statements are to be submitted and the form and content of such statements.
(b) No papers will be accepted or considered for any purpose, if submitted after the dates directed, unless an extension of time is granted by the presiding officer for good cause shown.
(c) The presiding officer, upon such officer's own motion, or upon request of a party and for good cause shown, may permit or require additional submissions. Failure to file requested documentation may be grounds for denying the application or dismissing the protest.
