§ 42.36. Complaints seeking relief for persons other than the named complainant.
(a) Whenever a person seeks relief for unnamed persons, other than a cease and desist order, the complaint shall include an allegation to the effect that the complaint is made on behalf of other persons who have been affected by the alleged unlawful discriminatory practice.
(b) The Commission will not enter into an adjustment or settlement of a complaint, which includes a subsection (a) allegation, unless the Commission determines that the adjustment or settlement does not prejudice or, in the alternative, adequately protects the interests of the class of unnamed persons upon whose behalf the complaint was brought.
(c) The inclusion of any person within a class of unnamed persons under subsection (a) does not preclude the person from filing and pursuing an individual complaint of unlawful discrimination before the Commission.
