D.C. Mun. Regs. tit. 8, r. 8-A1600
It shall be the responsibility of all employees of the School of Law to seek the resolution of conflict, the prompt and equitable relief of personal concerns, and the redress of grievances in a fair and objective manner.
The submission of a grievance in good faith by an employee shall not be considered an act of disloyalty or insubordination.
The submission of grievance by an employee, in and of itself, shall not be considered a reflection upon the employee's supervisor, the administration of the School of Law, or the Board of Governors.
All time limits set forth in this chapter may be extended by mutual consent of the employee and the supervisor or other official with whom the grievance is filed. Unless the time limits are extended, they shall be strictly observed by the parties.
The decision of the supervisor or other official shall be final unless reversed, in whole or in part, in any stage of the grievance procedure.
