Probable cause determinations.

An administrative law judge will review the information or evidence supporting any complaint commission staff proposes to have the commission issue and will determine whether probable cause exists to issue the complaint. Upon determining that the information would sustain the complaint if proved at hearing and not rebutted or explained, the judge will sign the complaint on behalf of the commission. The existence of a finding of probable cause may not in any later stage of the proceeding be considered as support for the complaint.
