Procedures for Handling Allegations of Misconduct in Research Sample Clauses

Procedures for Handling Allegations of Misconduct in Research. Any allegations of misconduct in academic research must be taken seriously. The College will attempt to ensure that those making allegations in good faith are protected from reprisals but will not tolerate allegations that are frivolous, unreasonable or without foundation. The College will endeavour to protect the identities of both the respondent and the individual making the allegations at all stages of the process, pending the final outcome. Both the respondent and the individual making the allegations are strictly bound to protect each other’s identity. If there is an allegation of misconduct involving research performed at the College but the respondent is no longer a member of the College community, the College shall nevertheless have the right to pursue the complaint under this policy. In such circumstances, the respondent shall be given reasonable notice of the complaint and the opportunity to answer the allegations as outlined in this policy. If the respondent fails to respond or make themselves available for the proceedings, the College shall have the right to proceed without their involvement. All complainants are encouraged to pursue the possibility of informal resolution under the auspices of the Department Chairperson before filing a formal complaint. Where no such resolution is possible, these steps will be followed:

  • SCOPE OF SERVICES/CASE HANDLING A. Upon execution by GPM, attorneys are retained to provide legal services for the purpose of seeking damages and other relief in the Litigation. Client provides authorization to seek appointment as Lead Plaintiff in the class action, while the Attorneys will seek to be appointed Class Counsel. If this occurs, the Litigation will be prosecuted as a class action. B. If you obtain access to non-public information during the pendency of the Litigation, you must not engage in transactions in securities. C. Attorneys are authorized to prosecute the Litigation. The appointed Lead Plaintiffs will monitor, review and participate with counsel in the prosecution of the Litigation. The Attorneys shall consult with the appointed Lead Plaintiffs concerning all major substantive matters related to the Litigation, including, but not limited to, the complaint, dispositive motions and settlement. Because of potential differences of opinion between Clients concerning, among other things, strategy, goals and objectives of the Litigation, the Attorneys shall consult with the appointed Lead Plaintiffs as to the courses of action to pursue. The Client agrees to abide by the decisions of the appointed Lead Plaintiffs, which shall be final and binding on all Clients. D. GPM is given the authority to opt the Client out of any class action proceeding relating to the claims authorized herein and/or pursue the Client claim individually in a group action, if the Client is not appointed Lead Plaintiff and GPM is not appointed Class Counsel. E. The Attorneys shall provide sufficient resources, including attorney time and capital for payment of costs and expenses, to vigorously prosecute the Litigation. F. Any recovery from defendants that the Attorneys are responsible for will be divided among class members based on the recognized loss by each class member as calculated by a damage allocation plan which will be prepared by a financial expert or consultant, provided to the appointed Lead Plaintiffs, be subject to the Court's approval and will account for such factors as size of securities ownership, date of purchase, date of sale and continued holdings, if any. Under the rules governing class action litigation, while the Lead Plaintiffs recover according to the same formula as other class members, the Court may approve, upon application therefore, reimbursement of the Lead Plaintiffs’ reasonable costs and expenses directly related to the representation of the class. Examples are lost wages and travel expenses associated with testifying in the action.
