THE APPEALS PROCESS Sample Clauses

The Appeals Process clause outlines the procedures by which a party can challenge or seek review of a decision made under the agreement. Typically, it specifies the steps to initiate an appeal, such as submitting a written notice within a certain timeframe, and may detail the forum or authority that will hear the appeal, like an internal committee or an external arbitrator. This clause ensures that parties have a clear and fair mechanism to contest decisions they believe are incorrect or unjust, thereby promoting transparency and due process within the contractual relationship.
THE APPEALS PROCESS. If a student or parent wishes to appeal, they may do so in writing to the Activities Director/Assistant Principal within five (5) school days after being informed of the decision. Upon receiving the written appeal, the Principal and/or the Activities Director/Assistant Principal will meet with the student and the student’s parents. If the student wishes to continue the appeal, the Principal and/or the Activities Director/Assistant Principal will schedule a meeting of the Code of Conduct Appeals Council to be held within three (3) school days. The student and parents will have the opportunity to present evidence or challenge evidence presented at this meeting. The Code of Conduct Appeals Council will limit its deliberations to the evidence presented at the meeting. The Code of Conduct Appeals Council will be comprised of: ● One Building or District Level Administrator ● Two head coaches and one activity advisor ● One teacher not involved in co-curricular activities ● One of the above adults will be selected by the principal to serve as the chairperson and not vote unless there is a tie No member of the Code of Conduct Appeals Council shall have a conflict of interest. No coach/advisor may pass judgment on a case involving his/her student athlete. The Code of Conduct Appeals Council may take one of two actions: ● Uphold the Principal’s and/or the Activities Director/Assistant Principal’s decision. ● Overturn the Principal’s and/or the Activities Director/Assistant Principal’s decision. (Note: The council may overturn a decision when they believe that the “technical requirements” of the code have not been followed. In determining this, the council should consider whether or not the evidence against a student is reasonable and whether or not the penalty was in accordance with this code. The intent of this paragraph is to limit the reasons for overturning the Principal’s and/or the Activities Director/Assistant Principal decision to technical reasons rather than reasons which stem from personal disagreements with the code itself). The decision of the Code of Conduct Appeals Council will be final with no further appeals by the student nor any further disciplinary action by the Principal and/or the Activities Director/Assistant Principal that would affect a student’s co-curricular participation.

THE APPEALS PROCESS. There is a right of appeal against decisions made by the IFR Panel, and by NHS BEN officers at level 1. A request for appeal may only be made by the patient affected by the decision to the designated officer. A representative of the patient, for example the parent or carer, or a clinician can appeal on behalf of the patient if they have the written consent of the patient to act on their behalf. All requests for appeal must be made in writing within 3 months of the date of the letter informing them of the original decision. All appellants will be directed to the Patient Advice Liaison Service (PALS) for additional support. Appeals against decisions at level 1 will be heard by the IFR panel at level 2, and appeals against decisions made at level 2 will be heard by an appeals panel. An Appeals Panel will meet as required. Unless there are circumstances making this impossible or the case is deemed urgent, following manager review, this will usually be within 6 weeks of receipt of a letter of appeal. The Appeal Panel will review the process followed by the IFR Panel. The Appeal Panel will set out their decision and the reasons for it in writing to both the referring doctor and the patient.

  • Claims Process We intend to appoint the senior trustee as the authorized representative to take action on behalf of holders of each series of the notes under the guarantee. The authorized representative will agree to make a demand of the FDIC upon our failure to pay interest or principal on any series of the notes when due. As provided in the FDIC’s regulations, a holder will also have the option to elect not to be represented by the authorized representative. Upon our failure to pay interest or principal, the authorized representative and a holder that has elected not to be so represented must follow the FDIC’s required procedures for making a demand under the guarantee. In addition to the procedures described below, the authorized representative will be required when making a demand, to the extent not previously provided in the master agreement, to provide the FDIC with information regarding its authority, including: its financial and organizational capacity to act as representative, its exclusive authority to act on behalf of each noteholder and its fiduciary responsibility to the noteholders when acting as such, as established by the senior indenture, and its authority to make the assignment of each noteholder’s right, title, and interest in the notes to the FDIC. Any demand under the guarantee must be accompanied by a proof of claim, satisfactory in form and content to the FDIC, which includes evidence of the occurrence of a payment default and the claimant’s ownership of the applicable notes. The claimant must provide to the FDIC an assignment, satisfactory in form and content to the FDIC, of the noteholder’s right, title and interest in the notes to the FDIC and the transfer to the FDIC of any claim in any insolvency proceeding against us. The assignment must also grant to the FDIC the right to receive any and all distributions on the note from the proceeds of any bankruptcy. If a holder receives a payment on a note from a bankruptcy, any obligation of the FDIC under the guarantee would be reduced proportionally. Demands must be made by the authorized representative or by a holder that elects not to be represented by the authorized representative within 60 days of the occurrence of the payment default. Upon payment by the FDIC of any amount under the guarantee, the FDIC will be subrogated to the rights of the recipient noteholder against us, including in respect of any insolvency proceeding, to the extent of such payment.
