MCAD Reorganizes and Abandons Pre-Determination Discovery
06/04/2004

The Massachusetts Commission Against Discrimination today issued a new standing order announcing a significant reorganization. Until today, the MCAD had been organized into two separate units with different procedures: the Pro Se Unit (for unrepresented parties) and the Attorney Assisted Unit (or “AAU,” for cases in which both parties are represented by counsel). The reorganization eliminates the separate units, in favor of a single Enforcement Division comprised of Investigators and Enforcement Advisors.
