Section 21.25.070. Priorities for investigation.


Latest version.
  • When the ombudsman's resources are insufficient for adequate investigation due to the number of pending complaints, the ombudsman will consider the following priorities for selecting complaints for investigation:  
    		(1) complaints alleging an emergency in which delay would subject the complainant to a substantial risk of serious and irreparable harm;  
    		(2) complaints alleging prejudice, harm, or disadvantage for which the ombudsman believes that the possibility of an effective remedy requires investigation with minimal delay;  
    		(3) complaints alleging recurring prejudice, harm, or disadvantage to multiple persons due to an administrative act;  
    		(4) complaints alleging a single or isolated instance of prejudice, harm, or disadvantage that has already occurred and thus cannot be prevented by an ombudsman's investigation.
