ETHICS HEARING

an Ethics Hearing may be convened by an Ethics Officer to obtain data for further action or inaction. The order is issued as an HCO Ethics Order. The time and place of the Ethics Hearing is stated in the order. The purpose of the Hearing is stated. Interested Parties are named. An Ethics Hearing may name witnesses but not the person's immediate superiors to appear against him in person but may consider a written statement by a superior. An Ethics Hearing has no power to discipline but may advise on consequences. If doubt exists in the matter of whether or not a misdemeanor or crime or suppression has occurred, it will be usual to convene an Ethics Hearing or Executive Ethics Hearing not a Court of Ethics.
