Cal. Code Regs. Tit. 8, § 20216 - Investigation by Regional Director
(a)
The regional director shall investigate to determine whether or not there is
reasonable cause to believe that an unfair labor practice has been
committed.
(b) The regional
director may propound written interrogatories to a charged party to be answered
under oath. The regional director may propound interrogatories any time that is
10 days after service of the charge on the charged party. The scope of
permissible interrogatories under this section shall be limited to threshold
issues, such as the proper legal identity of the charged party; the charged
party's status as a labor organization, agricultural employer, farm labor
contractor, or custom harvester; whether an alleged discriminatee is an
agricultural employee; and supervisory or agency status of any individual
alleged to have committed an unfair labor practice. The charged party shall
respond to the interrogatories within 20 days after service of the
interrogatories, answering each interrogatory separately and completely, and
shall sign the response under oath.
(c) If a charged party fails to respond to
interrogatories propounded by the regional director, the regional director may
apply to the chief administrative law judge, or the assigned administrative law
judge, to compel responses from the charged party or for other appropriate
relief as provided in section
20238(b).
