Section 391-95-150 - Deficiency notice - Preliminary ruling

The executive director or a designated staff member shall determine whether the facts alleged in the petition may constitute a basis for assertion of a right of nonassociation within the meaning of the applicable statute.

(1) If the facts alleged do not, as a matter of law, constitute a basis for assertion of a right of nonassociation, a deficiency notice shall be issued and served on all parties, identifying the defects and specifying a due date for the filing and service of an amended petition.

Unless appealed to the commission under WAC 391-95-270, an order of dismissal issued under this subsection shall be the final order of the agency on the defective allegation(s), with the same force and effect as if issued by the commission.

(2) If one or more allegations state a cause of action for nonassociation proceedings before the commission, a preliminary ruling summarizing the allegation(s) shall be issued and served on all parties.
