of
the Georgia Code
2006 Georgia Code - 21-5-7
21-5-7. The commission shall not initiate any
investigation or inquiry into any matter under its jurisdiction
based upon the complaint of any person unless that person shall
produce the same in writing and verify the same under oath to the
best information, knowledge, and belief of such person, the
falsification of which shall be punishable as false swearing under
Code Section 16-10-71. The person against whom any complaint is
made shall be furnished by hand delivery or statutory overnight
delivery or mailed by certified mail, return receipt requested, a
copy of the complaint by the commission within two business days of
the commissiońs
receipt of such complaint and prior to any other public
dissemination of such complaint. Nothing in this Code section,
however, shall be construed to limit or encumber the right of the
commission to initiate on probable cause an investigation on its
own cognizance as it deems necessary to fulfill its obligations
under this chapter.
