Sec.7-471-35. Back pay proceedings

(a) After a board order has been issued or after enforcement of such order by the superior court, if informal efforts to dispose of the matter prove unsuccessful, the agent is then authorized in the agent’s discretion to issue a specification in the name of the board and a notice of hearing before the board, both of which shall be sent by registered or certified mail to the parties involved. The specification sets forth the relief owed, including but not limited to the computations showing the amount of back pay or other monetary relief due and any other pertinent information. Each party shall file an answer within fifteen (15) days of the receipt of the specification setting forth a particularized response, including, when appropriate, alternative computations showing the amount of back pay or other monetary relief due and any other pertinent information.

(b) In the alternative, and in his discretion, the agent under the circumstances specified above, may issue and send to the parties a notice of hearing only without a specification. Such notice shall contain in addition to the time and place of hearing before the board, a brief statement of the matters in controversy.
