Bill Summary

Relative to the investigation process of discrimination complaints. The Judiciary.

AI Summary

This bill seeks to streamline the investigation process of discrimination complaints. It amends the existing law by allowing a respondent to file a motion to dismiss for lack of jurisdiction within 21 days of being served a complaint. If such a motion is filed, it will automatically stay the investigation pending the adjudication of the motion. The investigation can only resume if and when the commission determines that it has jurisdiction over the matter.
