Administrative hearings provision modification for human rights cases
SF 3606 modifies Minnesota's administrative hearing process for human rights cases under Statute 363A.29. It requires the commissioner to decide within 30 days whether to forward a party's request for a hearing to the Court of Administrative Hearings, replacing the prior process. This change directly affects individuals or entities contesting human rights determinations by altering how hearing requests are routed and processed. The bill does not change substantive human rights protections or appeal procedures, only the administrative mechanics of initiating hearings.
