D. District Review Committees

1. Jurisdiction.
    A matter can come before a District Review Committee by either a complaint, appeal, or
    upon the exercise of original jurisdiction.
a. Complaints.
    Any person or club can file a complaint with the Review Committee. The Chair of the Committee shall
    review complaints to determine whether there is reasonable cause to believe that a violation has occurred
    and that there are some facts to support the allegation. If such finding is made, the Chair shall schedule the
    matter for a hearing by the Committee. If no reasonable cause is found the complaint may be dismissed. 
    If the Chair does not find reasonable cause, the case will be considered anyway, upon the request of at
    least three (3) Review Committee members.
b. Appeals.
    1. Any decision by a District Infractions Committee or Officer may be appealed to the District Review
    Committee.
    2. Appeals must be in writing, received not more than 20 days after the decision is issued, and shall be
    delivered with an appeal fee of $100.00.
    3. The notice of appeal shall be delivered to the District Secretary who will notify the Review Committee
    Chair of the appeal, and forward the appeal fee to the District Treasurer.
c. Original Jurisdiction.
    The Review Committee may exercise original jurisdiction to initiate a case when it finds reasonable
    cause to believe that a violation has occurred.
2. Hearings.
    The Review Committee Chair shall schedule hearings and notify the Committee members and parties
    to the case. Hearings shall be scheduled not more than 45 days from: a) the date that Notice of Appeal
    was received by the District Secretary, or b) from the date that reasonable cause is found on a complaint.
3. Evidence.
    The Chair shall preside at hearings, and shall rule on questions of evidence. The Chair may permit the
     introduction of any matter that is relevant to the facts of the case or the appropriateness of penalties.
    Evidence can be written or oral.  Hearsay may be permitted. The Chair may make preliminary orders
    setting deadlines for submitting documents, witness lists or other appropriate parameters or limits to
    the evidence.
4. Decisions.
    Decisions must be in writing, and distributed to all affected parties within 20 days of the conclusion of
    the hearing. The Decision shall contain notice of the right to appeal to the National Board of Review.
