Section R12-14-611 - Informal Settlement Conference
A. If requested by any party to an appeal of an Appealable Agency Action, the Commission shall hold an informal settlement conference within 15 days after receiving the request. A request for an informal settlement conference shall be in writing and shall be filed with the Commission no later than twenty days before the hearing. If an informal settlement conference is requested, the party shall notify the Commission of the request and the outcome of the conference. The request for an informal settlement conference does not toll the sixty day period in which the administrative hearing is to be held pursuant to A.R.S. § 41-1092.05.
B. If an informal settlement conference is held, a person designated by the Commission shall represent the Commission at the conference. The Commission representative shall notify the appellant in writing that statements, either written or oral, made by the appellant at the conference, including a written document, created or expressed solely for the purpose of settlement negotiations are inadmissible in any subsequent administrative hearing. By participating in the settlement conference, the party or parties waive their right to object to the participation of the Commission representative in the final administrative decision.
