The Office of Administrative Law Judges supports the Commission’s mission by conducting hearings, issuing initial decisions, and adjudicating ancillary matters in administrative proceedings. The Commission initiates an administrative proceeding by issuing an order instituting proceedings, which in most cases contains the Division of Enforcement’s allegations against one or more respondents. Where an order instituting proceedings directs that a public hearing be held before an administrative law judge for the purpose of taking evidence, the judge determines whether the allegations are true and issues an initial decision within a specific time period.
