| 6 | | Sec. 7B-102. Procedures.
| 7 | | (A) Charge.
| 8 | | (1) Within one year after the
date that a civil rights | 9 | | violation allegedly has been committed or terminated,
a | 10 | | charge in writing under oath or affirmation may be filed | 11 | | with the
Department by an aggrieved party or issued by the | 12 | | Department itself
under the signature of the Director.
| 13 | | (2) The charge shall be in such detail as to | 14 | | substantially apprise
any party properly concerned as to | 15 | | the time, place, and facts
surrounding the alleged civil | 16 | | rights violation.
| 17 | | (B) Notice and Response to Charge.
| 18 | | (1) The Department shall serve
notice upon the | 19 | | aggrieved party acknowledging such charge and advising the
| 20 | | aggrieved party of the time limits and choice of forums | 21 | | provided under this
Act. The Department shall, within 10 | 22 | | days of the date on which the charge
was filed or the | 23 | | identification of an additional respondent under paragraph
| 24 | | (2) of this subsection, serve on the respondent a copy of | 25 | | the charge along with a notice
identifying the alleged |
| | | 10100SB0220ham002 | - 5 - | LRB101 07990 LNS 61100 a |
|
| 1 | | civil rights violation and advising the
respondent of the | 2 | | procedural rights and obligations of respondents under
| 3 | | this Act and may require the respondent to file a response | 4 | | to
the allegations contained in the charge. Upon the | 5 | | Department's request, the respondent
shall file a response | 6 | | to the charge within 30 days and
shall serve a copy of its | 7 | | response on the complainant or his or her
representative. | 8 | | Notwithstanding
any request from the Department, the | 9 | | respondent may elect
to file a response to the charge | 10 | | within 30 days of receipt
of notice of the charge, provided | 11 | | the respondent serves a copy of its response on the | 12 | | complainant or his or her representative. All allegations | 13 | | contained in the charge
not denied by the respondent within | 14 | | 30 days after the Department's request for a response may | 15 | | be deemed admitted, unless the
respondent states that it is | 16 | | without sufficient information to
form a belief with | 17 | | respect to such allegation. The Department may issue
a | 18 | | notice of default directed to any respondent who fails to | 19 | | file a
response to a charge within 30 days of the | 20 | | Department's request, unless the respondent can | 21 | | demonstrate good cause as
to why such notice should not | 22 | | issue. The term "good cause" shall be defined by rule | 23 | | promulgated by the Department. Within 10 days of the date | 24 | | he or she
receives the respondent's response, the | 25 | | complainant may file his or her reply to
said response. If | 26 | | he or she chooses to file a reply, the complainant shall |
| | | 10100SB0220ham002 | - 6 - | LRB101 07990 LNS 61100 a |
|
| 1 | | serve
a copy of said reply on the respondent or his or her | 2 | | representative. A party may
supplement his or her response | 3 | | or reply at any time that
the investigation of the charge | 4 | | is pending.
| 5 | | (2) A person who is not named as a respondent in a | 6 | | charge, but who is
identified as a respondent in the course | 7 | | of investigation, may be joined as
an additional or | 8 | | substitute respondent upon written notice, under | 9 | | subsection
(B), to such person, from the Department.
Such | 10 | | notice, in addition to meeting the requirements of | 11 | | subsections (A)
and (B), shall explain the basis for the | 12 | | Department's belief that a person
to whom the notice is | 13 | | addressed is properly joined as a respondent.
| 14 | | (C) Investigation.
| 15 | | (1) The Department shall conduct a full investigation
| 16 | | of the allegations set forth in the charge and complete | 17 | | such investigation
within 100 days after the filing of the | 18 | | charge, unless it is impracticable to
do so. The | 19 | | Department's failure to complete the investigation within | 20 | | 100 days after the proper filing of the charge does not | 21 | | deprive the Department of jurisdiction over the charge.
| 22 | | (2) If the Department is unable to complete the | 23 | | investigation within 100
days after the charge is filed, | 24 | | the Department shall notify the complainant
and respondent | 25 | | in writing of the reasons for not doing so.
| 26 | | (3) The Director or his or her designated |
| | | 10100SB0220ham002 | - 7 - | LRB101 07990 LNS 61100 a |
|
| 1 | | representative shall have
authority to request any member | 2 | | of the Commission to issue subpoenas to
compel the | 3 | | attendance of a witness or the production for
examination | 4 | | of any books, records or documents whatsoever.
| 5 | | (4) If any witness whose testimony is required for any | 6 | | investigation
resides outside the State, or through | 7 | | illness or any other good cause as
determined by the | 8 | | Director is unable to be interviewed by the investigator
or | 9 | | appear at a fact finding conference, his or her testimony | 10 | | or deposition
may be taken, within or without the State, in | 11 | | the same manner as
provided for in the taking of | 12 | | depositions in civil cases in circuit courts.
| 13 | | (5) Upon reasonable notice to the complainant and the | 14 | | respondent,
the Department may shall conduct a fact finding | 15 | | conference , unless prior to
100 days from the date on which | 16 | | the charge was filed, the Director has
determined whether | 17 | | there is substantial evidence that the alleged civil
rights | 18 | | violation has been committed or the parties voluntarily and | 19 | | in writing agree to waive the fact finding conference . When | 20 | | requested by the Department, a A party's failure to attend | 21 | | the
conference
without good cause may result in dismissal | 22 | | or default. A notice of dismissal
or default shall be | 23 | | issued by the Director and shall notify the relevant
party | 24 | | that a request for review may be filed in writing with the | 25 | | Commission
within 30 days of receipt of notice of dismissal | 26 | | or default.
|

|
| 1 | | (D) Report.
| 2 | | (1) Each charge investigated under subsection (C) | 3 | | shall be the subject of a
report to the Director. The | 4 | | report shall be a confidential document
subject to review | 5 | | by the Director, authorized Department employees, the
| 6 | | parties, and, where indicated by this Act, members of the | 7 | | Commission or
their designated hearing officers.
| 8 | | The report shall contain:
| 9 | | (a) the names and dates of contacts with witnesses;
| 10 | | (b) a summary and the date of correspondence and | 11 | | other contacts with the
aggrieved party and the | 12 | | respondent;
| 13 | | (c) a summary description of other pertinent | 14 | | records;
| 15 | | (d) a summary of witness statements; and
| 16 | | (e) answers to questionnaires.
| 17 | | A final report under this paragraph may be amended if | 18 | | additional evidence
is later discovered.
| 19 | | (2) Upon review of the report and within 100 days of | 20 | | the filing of the
charge, unless it is impracticable
to do | 21 | | so, the Director shall determine whether there is | 22 | | substantial
evidence that the alleged civil rights | 23 | | violation has been committed or is
about to be committed.
| 24 | | If the Director is unable to make the determination within | 25 | | 100 days after
the filing of the charge, the Director shall | 26 | | notify the complainant and
respondent in writing of the |
| | | 10100SB0220ham002 | - 9 - | LRB101 07990 LNS 61100 a |
|
| 1 | | reasons for not doing so. The Director's failure to make | 2 | | the determination within 100 days after the proper filing | 3 | | of the charge does not deprive the Department of | 4 | | jurisdiction over the charge.
| 5 | | (a) If the Director determines that there is no | 6 | | substantial
evidence, the charge shall be dismissed | 7 | | and the aggrieved party notified
that he or she may | 8 | | seek review of the dismissal order before the
| 9 | | Commission. The aggrieved party shall have 90 days from | 10 | | receipt of notice
to file a request for review by the | 11 | | Commission. The
Director shall make
public disclosure | 12 | | of each such dismissal.
| 13 | | (b) If the Director determines that there is | 14 | | substantial evidence, he or
she shall immediately | 15 | | issue a complaint on behalf of the aggrieved party
| 16 | | pursuant to subsection (F).
| 17 | | (E) Conciliation.
| 18 | | (1) During the period beginning with the filing of
| 19 | | charge and ending with the filing of a complaint or a | 20 | | dismissal by the
Department, the Department shall, to the | 21 | | extent feasible, engage in
conciliation with respect to | 22 | | such charge.
| 23 | | When the Department determines that a formal
| 24 | | conciliation conference is feasible, the aggrieved party | 25 | | and respondent
shall be notified of the time and place of | 26 | | the conference by registered
or certified mail at least 7 |
| | | 10100SB0220ham002 | - 10 - | LRB101 07990 LNS 61100 a |
|
| 1 | | days prior thereto and either or both
parties shall appear | 2 | | at the conference in person or by attorney.
| 3 | | (2) The place fixed for the conference shall be within | 4 | | 35 miles of
the place where the civil rights violation is | 5 | | alleged to have been
committed.
| 6 | | (3) Nothing occurring at the conference shall be made | 7 | | public or used as
evidence in a subsequent proceeding for | 8 | | the purpose of proving a violation
under this Act unless | 9 | | the complainant and respondent agree in writing that
such | 10 | | disclosure be made.
| 11 | | (4) A conciliation agreement arising out of such | 12 | | conciliation shall be
an agreement between the respondent | 13 | | and the complainant, and shall be
subject to approval by | 14 | | the Department and Commission.
| 15 | | (5) A conciliation agreement may provide for binding | 16 | | arbitration of the
dispute arising from the charge. Any | 17 | | such arbitration that results from a
conciliation | 18 | | agreement may award appropriate relief, including monetary | 19 | | relief.
| 20 | | (6) Each conciliation agreement shall be made public | 21 | | unless the
complainant and respondent otherwise agree and | 22 | | the Department determines
that disclosure is not required | 23 | | to further the purpose of this Act.
| 24 | | (F) Complaint.
| 25 | | (1) When there is a failure to settle or adjust any
| 26 | | charge through a conciliation conference and the charge is |
| | | 10100SB0220ham002 | - 11 - | LRB101 07990 LNS 61100 a |
|
| 1 | | not dismissed,
the Department shall prepare a
written | 2 | | complaint, under oath or affirmation, stating the nature of | 3 | | the
civil rights violation and the relief sought on behalf | 4 | | of the aggrieved
party. Such complaint shall be based on | 5 | | the final investigation report and
need not be limited to | 6 | | the facts or grounds alleged in the charge filed
under | 7 | | subsection (A).
| 8 | | (2) The complaint shall be filed with the Commission.
| 9 | | (3) The Department may not issue a complaint under this | 10 | | Section
regarding an alleged civil rights violation after | 11 | | the beginning of
the trial of a civil action commenced by | 12 | | the aggrieved party under any
State or federal law, seeking | 13 | | relief with respect to that alleged civil rights
violation.
| 14 | | (G) Time Limit.
| 15 | | (1) When a charge of a civil rights violation has been
| 16 | | properly filed, the Department, within 100 days thereof, | 17 | | unless it is
impracticable to do so,
shall either issue and | 18 | | file a complaint in the manner and form set forth in
this | 19 | | Section or shall order that no complaint be issued. Any | 20 | | such order
shall be duly served upon both the aggrieved | 21 | | party and the respondent. The Department's failure to | 22 | | either issue and file a complaint or order that no | 23 | | complaint be issued within 100 days after the proper filing | 24 | | of the charge does not deprive the Department of | 25 | | jurisdiction over the charge.
| 26 | | (2) The Director shall make available to the aggrieved |
| | | 10100SB0220ham002 | - 12 - | LRB101 07990 LNS 61100 a |
|
| 1 | | party
and the respondent, at any time, upon request | 2 | | following completion of the
Department's investigation, | 3 | | information derived from an investigation and
any final | 4 | | investigative report relating to that investigation.
| 5 | | (H) This amendatory Act of 1995 applies to causes of action | 6 | | filed on or
after
January 1, 1996.
| 7 | | (I) The changes made to this Section by Public Act 95-243 | 8 | | apply to charges filed on or
after the effective date of those | 9 | | changes. | 10 | | (J) The changes made to this Section by this amendatory Act | 11 | | of the 96th General Assembly apply to charges filed on or
after | 12 | | the effective date of those changes. | 13 | | (Source: P.A. 100-492, eff. 9-8-17; 100-1066, eff. 8-24-18.)
