§ 1-01 Adjudication of Fitness and Discipline of Commission Employees.
New York City Civil Service Commission adjudications regarding the fitness and discipline of Commission employees will be conducted by the Office of Administrative Trials and Hearings.

Chapter 2: Determinations of the New York City Civil Service Commission¶
Where a hearing officer other than the agency head is designated in writing to hear the charges preferred, the record furnished the Commission shall contain such written designation of a copy thereof unless such designation is on file with the Commission or provided for in the City Charter and/or published agency rules.
Where an appeal is taken, the Commission shall review the record below and shall afford appellant and the employing agency the opportunity to make an oral presentation and/or to submit written statements to the Commission. Oral arguments may be heard by one or more members of the Commission, or any person duly designated pursuant to § 76(2) of the Civil Service Law. When an appellant declines to make an oral argument, the appeal shall be deemed submitted to the Commission. The agency may elect to reset on the record adduced at the disciplinary proceeding.
Oral argument shall be scheduled within ninety (90) days of receipt of the record below or as soon thereafter as practicable. The determination of the Commission shall be rendered within ninety (90) days after the record on appeal has been submitted for decision or as soon thereafter as practicable.
When the Commission reviews determinations regarding the fitness and discipline of agency employees after hearings conducted pursuant to Civil Service Law § 75, the Commission may affirm, reverse or modify the findings of fact, conclusions of law and penalties imposed below.
Where the Commission upon appeal modifies a determination of dismissal by permitting or requiring the transfer of an appellant to a vacancy in a similar position in another division or department;
(a) An appeal to the Commission by any person aggrieved by an action or determination by the City Personnel Director or his or her designee on accordance with his or her powers as specified in 60 RCNY § 2-02(b) herein, shall be made by application in writing to the Commission within thirty (30) days of the date of the action or determination appealed from. Such action or determination shall be deemed to be effective upon notice to the appellant. If notice of the action or determination is by mail, there shall be a rebuttable presumption that notice occurred as of five calendar days after the date of the mailing of the action or determination.
An appeal to the Commission shall lie only where the action or determination appealed from is made pursuant to the City Personnel Director’s powers and duties as enumerated in paragraphs 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 of § 813(a) of the City Charter and paragraph 5 of § 813(b) of the City Charter.
The Commission may affirm, modify, reverse or remand such action or deter- mination.
The Commission shall decide appeals from determinations of the City Personnel Director or his or her designee on the basis of written submissions by the parties. Such submissions shall include the record support in the determination of the City Personnel Director or appropriate motions to dismiss the notice of appeal. The Commission, however, may hear oral argument to afford appellant an opportunity to make an explanation and to submit facts in opposition to the action or determination of the City Personnel Director. At such proceedings, the City Personnel Director will be permitted to defend his/her action or determination.
The appellant shall be entitled to a transcript of the Commission’s proceedings upon payment of a reasonable cost for the production of same.
All appeals to the Commission which result from medical disqualifications by the City Personnel Director and/or his or her designee pursuant to § 813(6) of the City Charter shall be supported by medical documentation which shall be received by the Commission within sixty (60) days of the filing of the appeal.
All appeals to the Commission which result from a psychological disqualification by the City Personnel Director and/or his or her designee pursuant to § 813(6) of the City Charter shall be supported by medical documentation which shall be received by the Commission within sixty (60) days of the filing of the appeal.
Extension of the time periods set forth in 60 RCNY § 2-02(f) and (g) may be granted for good cause shown.
When the Commission deems that oral argument is required as set forth in 60 RCNY § 2-02(d), such proceeding shall be scheduled within ninety (90) days of receipt of the complete record or as soon thereafter as practicable.
The Commission shall in all appeals from actions or determinations of the City Personnel Director render a written determination within ninety (90) days of the date such appeal is reveiwed or as soon thereafter as practicable.
The Commission may, in its discretion, take whatever measures it deems appropriate to ensure review of pending appeals prior to the expiration of the pertinent eligible list.
