If a grievance remains unresolved after exhaustion of an agency grievance procedure, a civil service employee may demand a hearing before the commission as provided for in contested cases in chapter 1-26 . The proceedings shall be held as provided in chapter 1-26 . The commission shall provide notice of the hearing within thirty calendar days of an employee's request for a hearing. The commission shall conduct a hearing within thirty calendar days of the notice of the hearing unless the hearing is continued for good cause or unless the commission determines, upon the motion of any party, that the pleadings, depositions, answers to interrogatories, and admissions on file, together with the affidavits, if any, show that a grievance, defense, or claim presents no genuine issue as to any material fact and a party is entitled to a judgment as a matter of law.
The commission, upon the motion of any party, may dispose of any grievance, defense, or claim at the close of the evidence offered by the proponent of the grievance, defense, or claim if the commission determines that the evidence offered by the proponent of the grievance, defense, or claim is legally insufficient to sustain the grievance, defense, or claim. The human resources commissioner shall schedule the hearing to ensure compliance with the time frames provided in this section.
If the grievant agrees, the commissioner may appoint a hearing examiner as authorized in § 1-26-18.3 .
Any final action or decision may be appealed pursuant to chapter 1-26 .
