District of Columbia Court of Appeals

1Opinion of the Court
TERRY, Associate Judge:
This case presents a sorry picture of bureaucratic bungling and administrative intransigence. It has been pending for nine and a half years. Because of the stubborn refusal of the Commission on Human Rights to correct an obvious procedural error, at least six of those years have been wasted, and the case is no closer to a final disposition now than it was in 1979. We reverse the order that is before us for review and remand the case for a de novo evidentiary hearing before a new hearing examiner. In light of the delay thus far, we direct that the new hearing be held…
