Dear Mr. Hoffman:
Please be advised that a Complaint charging Akin, Gump, Hauer & Feld with unlawful discrimination prohibited by the District of Columbia Human Rights Act, D.C. Code, Section 1-2505, et seq. (1981 Edition) was filed with the Department of Human Rights and Minority Business Development by Gary Freedman, on February 4, 1992. A copy of said Complaint is enclosed and you are deemed served with the same.
You will be contacted within ten (10) days by an investigator from our Department, who is charged with obtaining information and facts from the parties, witnesses, and others necessary to allow the Department to make a determination in this matter.
Section 1-2585 of the D.C. Human Rights Act (the Act) places an affirmative obligation on Respondent to cooperate with the Department in the investigation of matters, and makes failure to cooperate a separate offense.
You should be aware that if you fail to cooperate with the Department's investigation and are found in violation of Section 1-2585 of the Act, any business licenses, permits, etc., issued to you by the District of Columbia may be adversely affected.
You have the rights and responsibilities as a Respondent in this action. Enclosed please find a copy of Respondent's Rights and Responsibilities.
Your full cooperation in this matter is requested. If there are questions or concerns at this stage, you may contact Mrs. Jennifer D. Mahone on my staff at 939-8740, otherwise you may wait to be contacted by a Department of Human rights investigator.
Very truly yours,
