Iowa Admin. Code r. 875-36.9

Current through Register Vol. 47, No. 11, December 11, 2024
Rule 875-36.9 - Withdrawal of complaints

Enforcement is not only a matter of protecting rights of employees, but also of public interest. Attempts by an employee to withdraw a previously filed complaint will not necessarily result in termination of the commissioner's investigation. The commissioner's jurisdiction cannot be foreclosed as a matter of law by unilateral action of the employee. However, a volimtary and uncoerced request from a complainant to withdraw the complaint will be given careful consideration and substantial weight as a matter of policy and sound enforcement procedure.
