1107.01000 – Exceptions; Responses to Exceptions; Standing; Extensions of Time/Late Filing/Waiver

After a formal unfair practice hearing resulting in a proposed decision finding that the school district, acting through its agent, an elected official on the governing body, interfered with protected rights, the proposed decision became final because neither of the parties filed a statement of exceptions; the agent lacked party status to file a statement of exceptions; to accord the agent the right to appellate review would be to contravene the statutory definition of “public school employer” and the regulatory rules governing the filing of exceptions, and would undercut the respondent’s right to control the administrative litigation and both parties’ expectation of finality.
