Investigations and Discovery Sample Clauses

Investigations and Discovery. Upon receiving notice from the Office of the Commissioner that it is conducting an investigation of a Player (or Players) that may result in discipline, the Player and the Association shall provide reasonable cooperation with the investigation, including but not limited to produc- ing documents and information. However, the Player and the Associa- tion reserve all of their rights to assert that any investigatory request from the Office of the Commissioner does not require cooperation because the request is unreasonable, irrelevant, overbroad, or ambigu- ous, or the requested information is covered by a recognized privilege. Disputes regarding whether a Player or the Association has provided reasonable cooperation in a particular context shall be resolved by the Arbitration Panel on an expedited basis. The Office of the Commissioner may conduct investigatory interviews of Players. Except where circumstances require expeditious handling, the Player and the Association shall receive reasonable advance notice of any investigatory interview with a Player. Where circumstances requiring expeditious handling are present, the Player and the Associ- ation shall receive as much advance notice as is possible, but in no event shall the Association receive less notice than the Player. All par- ties recognize the right of the Player to be represented at such inter- view by the Association and counsel of his choice. At the conclusion of the Office of the Commissioner’s investigation, but prior to the imposition of any discipline, the Parties shall conduct a pre-discipline conference. The Parties’ discussion at this conference shall be considered confidential and inadmissible in any Grievance challenging the discipline that may be imposed on the Player. At or before this pre-discipline conference, the Office of the Commissioner shall describe the results of its investigation and the evidence support- ing discipline. A Player who is disciplined shall have the right to discover, in timely fashion, all documents and evidence adduced during any investigation of the charges involved, including but not limited to any documents or evidence in the possession of the Office of the Commissioner that tend to negate a Player’s guilt, to mitigate punishment, or to impeach any witness who will appear at any hearing challenging discipline. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section D is not intended to super- sede or alter in any way the Parties’ respective rights and positions with resp...

  • NOTICES AND DISCLOSURES Behavioral HealthCare Parity This plan provides parity in benefits for behavioral health services. This means that coverage of benefits for mental health and substance use disorders is generally comparable to, and not more restrictive than, the benefits for physical health. Financial requirements, such as deductibles, copayments, or benefit limits that may apply to a behavioral health service benefit category, such as inpatient services, are not more restrictive than those that apply to most medical benefits within the same category. Different levels of financial requirements to different tiers of prescription drugs are applied without regard to whether a prescription drug is generally prescribed for physical, mental health, or substance use disorders. Other requirements are imposed that are not expressed numerically, such as preauthorization, concurrent utilization review, and retrospective utilization review. These are applied to behavioral health services in comparable ways as medical benefits.

  • Results and Discussion Table 1 (top) shows the root mean square error (RMSE) between the three tests for different numbers of topics. These results show that all three tests largely agree with each other but as the sample size (number of topics) decreases, the agreement decreases. In line with the results found for 50 topics, the randomization and bootstrap tests agree more with the t-test than with each other. We looked at pairwise scatterplots of the three tests at the different topic sizes. While there is some disagreement among the tests at large p-values, i.e. those greater than 0.5, none of the tests would predict such a run pair to have a significant difference. More interesting to us is the behavior of the tests for run pairs with lower p-values. ≥ Table 1 (bottom) shows the RMSE among the three tests for run pairs that all three tests agreed had a p-value greater than 0.0001 and less than 0.5. In contrast to all pairs with p-values 0.0001 (Table 1 top), these run pairs are of more importance to the IR researcher since they are the runs that require a statistical test to judge the significance of the per- formance difference. For these run pairs, the randomization and t tests are much more in agreement with each other than the bootstrap is with either of the other two tests. Looking at scatterplots, we found that the bootstrap tracks the t-test very well but shows a systematic bias to produce p-values smaller than the t-test. As the number of topics de- creases, this bias becomes more pronounced. Figure 1 shows a pairwise scatterplot of the three tests when the number of topics is 10. The randomization test also tends to produce smaller p-values than the t-test for run pairs where the t- test estimated a p-value smaller than 0.1, but at the same time, produces some p-values greater than the t-test’s. As Figure 1 shows, the bootstrap consistently gives smaller p- values than the t-test for these smaller p-values. While the bootstrap and the randomization test disagree with each other more than with the t-test, Figure 1 shows that for a low number of topics, the randomization test shows less noise in its agreement with the bootstrap com- Figure 1: A pairwise comparison of the p-values less than 0.25 produced by the randomization, t-test, and the bootstrap tests for pairs of TREC runs with only 10 topics.

  • Use and Disclosure All Confidential Information of a party will be held in confidence by the other party with at least the same degree of care as such party protects its own confidential or proprietary information of like kind and import, but not less than a reasonable degree of care. Neither party will disclose in any manner Confidential Information of the other party in any form to any person or entity without the other party’s prior consent. However, each party may disclose relevant aspects of the other party’s Confidential Information to its officers, affiliates, agents, subcontractors and employees to the extent reasonably necessary to perform its duties and obligations under this Agreement and such disclosure is not prohibited by applicable law. Without limiting the foregoing, each party will implement physical and other security measures and controls designed to protect (a) the security and confidentiality of Confidential Information; (b) against any threats or hazards to the security and integrity of Confidential Information; and (c) against any unauthorized access to or use of Confidential Information. To the extent that a party delegates any duties and responsibilities under this Agreement to an agent or other subcontractor, the party ensures that such agent and subcontractor are contractually bound to confidentiality terms consistent with the terms of this Section 11.
