Is reporting a possible allegation of a Title IX report the same as filing a complaint?

ANSWER: No. 聽Reporting is not the same as filing a report. An individual (who is the complainant/victim) who makes a report is not required to file a formal complaint. The university will make indivuals aware of supportive measures.聽

Will the initial report of a possible Title IX violation automatically result in a formal investigation?

ANSWER: 聽Reporting is not the same as filing a report. The initial report may not automatically result in a formal complaint. The Title IX Coordinator must contact the complainant confidentially to discuss the availability of supportive measures with or without the filing of a formal complaint, and explain to the complainant the process for filing a formal complaint.

Do the requirements in the Title IX regulations apply to allegations involving employees and students?

ANSWER: Yes. The Title IX regulations, define 鈥渃omplainant鈥 and 鈥渞espondent鈥 respectively as 鈥渁n individual who is alleged to be the victim鈥 and 鈥渁n individual who has been reported to be the perpetrator.鈥 Any person may be a complainant or respondent, regardless of whether the person is a student, employee, or otherwise affiliated with the university.

If the University is required to provide a party with an advisor, can the provided advisor be an employee of the institution or must such an advisor be independent of the institution?

ANSWER: The Title IX regulations do not preclude the University from providing an advisor who is an employee of the institution to serve as a party鈥檚 advisor for purposes of cross-examination, if the party does not have an advisor.

If the respondent does not find a suitable advisor and only wants to be represented by an attorney, does the University have to pay for the party鈥檚 attorney?

ANSWER: No. The postsecondary institution is not required to pay for a party鈥檚 attorney.

At the live-hearing level, what happens if the complainant or respondent refuse to answer questions?

ANSWER: The Hearing may proceed. Title IX requires universities to hold a live hearing with the opportunity for each party鈥檚 advisor to conduct cross-examination of parties and witnesses. Because party and witness statements so often raise credibility questions in the context of sexual harassment allegations, the decision-maker must consider only those statements that have benefited from the truth-seeking function of cross-examination.

Are written statements instead of live testimony permitted?

ANSWER: The prohibition on reliance on 鈥渟tatements鈥 applies not only to statements made during the hearing, but also to any statement of the party or witness who does not submit to cross-examination. 鈥淪tatements鈥 has its ordinary meaning, but would not include evidence (such as videos) that do not constitute a person鈥檚 intent to make factual assertions, or to the extent that such evidence does not contain a person鈥檚 statements. Thus, police reports, medical reports, and other documents and records may not be relied on to the extent that they contain the statements of a party or witness who has not submitted to cross-examination.

Are all witnesses expected to appear at a hearing, or do decision-makers have the flexibility to request witnesses as they deem necessary?

ANSWER: Title IX does not require that all witnesses appear at a hearing, although it does provide the parties an equal right to present witnesses. The decision-maker has discretion to permit witnesses to testify at the hearing remotely, using technology.

Are parties allowed to appeal determinations regarding responsibility?

ANSWER: 聽Either party may appeal a determination regarding responsibility, or from the University鈥檚 school鈥檚 dismissal of a formal complaint or any allegations therein, on based on the following: procedural irregularity, discovered evidence that could affect the outcome of the matter, Title IX personnel had a conflict of interest or bias.
