Coordination of Investigations. It has been the usual practice that when a criminal investigation is being conducted, schools suspend any disciplinary investigations arising out of the same incident in order to avoid hampering the ongoing criminal investigation. However, the “Anti-Bullying Bill of Rights Act” provides mandatory time frames for the completion of school investigations and hearings, and contains no provisions suspending those requirements while a criminal investigation is pending. (N.J.S.A. 18A:37.15.)
