A.
The Board, at its sole discretion, may process a complaint in any of the following ways:
1.
The executive director of the Board may dismiss the complaint, and issue a final determination, if the complaint does not comply with the requirements set forth in these regulations or, if the complaint does not, on its face, allege a violation of Title III with regard to a federal election.
2.
The executive director of the Board may dismiss the complaint, and issue a final determination, if the complaint is not filed within ninety (90) days of the final certification of the federal election at which the alleged violation took place.
3.
The Board may, upon agreement of all the parties, resolve the complaint informally, and issue a final determination without a formal proceeding. Any such informal resolution procedure shall be open to the public.
4.
The executive director of the Board shall schedule a date, time, and place for any hearing on the record.
