Connecticut Regulations § 9-7b-35 Commencement of contested case

⤴ Up to Part 2: Hearings

Regulation Text

When a hearing is required by statute and for purposes of section 4-181 of the General Statutes, the contested case shall commence on the date that the notice of hearing is issued by the executive director and general counsel or his designee in accordance with section 9-7b-37 of the regulations of Connecticut state agencies. No contested case concerning an alleged violation of state election law shall be commenced unless a majority vote of a quorum of the Commission finds reason to believe that a violation of the General Statutes within the Commission's jurisdiction has been committed. Such a reason to believe finding shall not be required in cases heard under the federal Help America Vote Act where the commission is serving only as an adjudicator. The commission, however, in its discretion, may make such a reason to believe finding on a complaint brought under the federal Help America Vote Act and may direct its staff to prosecute the matter. Following the issuance of such notice of a contested case, it shall be the responsibility of any party or other person wishing to receive notice of any further proceedings, to notify the Commission of the party or person's change of address and include the Commission file number and title of the proceedings in such notification.
