Use As Evidence. No testimony taken by depositions shall be consid- ered as part of the evidence in the hearing of an appeal until such testi- mony is offered and received in evi- dence at such hearing. It will not ordi- narily be received in evidence if the de- ponent is present and can testify at the hearing. In such instances, however, the deposition may be used to con- tradict or impeach the testimony of the deponent given at the hearing. In cases submitted on the record, the Board may, in its discretion, receive depositions to supplement the record.
