(1)

This section does not apply to housing discrimination complaints under ORS 659A.145 (Discrimination against individual with disability in real property transactions prohibited) or 659A.421 (Discrimination in selling, renting or leasing real property prohibited) or the federal Fair Housing Act (42 U.S.C. 3601 – 3614a). The settlement process after a substantial evidence determination in housing discrimination complaints is addressed in OAR 839-003-0225 (Settlement Process After Substantial Evidence Determination in Housing Discrimination Complaints).

(2)

If the division finds substantial evidence of unlawful practices, the division may seek to eliminate the effects of the unlawful discriminatory act(s) by conference, settlement and persuasion. The division will facilitate settlement negotiations between the aggrieved person and respondent as provided in OAR 839-003-0055 (Conciliation Agreements Prior to Completion of the Investigation).

(3)

If no settlement agreement is reached in the period of time set aside for settlement after a substantial evidence determination, the division retains the discretion to further negotiate settlement, administratively dismiss the complaint, or proceed to a contested case hearing.

(4)

The aggrieved person may withdraw the aggrieved person’s own complaint at any time.
