ART. XIX, SEC. 1 If both the President and Secretary-Treasurer of the Local Union are charged or are preferring the charges, or for any reason are unable to attend the hearing, the remaining members of the Local Union Executive Board shall appoint the substitutes. In no event shall any involved officer or member serve on a hearing panel, participate in the selection of a substitute member of a hearing panel, or participate in the decision making process of the trial body. This prohibition shall apply to any proceeding conducted under Article XIX or any other Article of this Constitution. Charges by, against, or involving a majority of the members of a Local Union Executive Board shall be filed with the Secretary-Treasurer of the Joint Council for trial by the Joint Council Executive Board. Where there is no chartered Joint Council, reference in this Article XIX relating to trials and appeals by or before Joint Councils shall apply pursuant to Article XV to the appropriate existing State or Multi-State Conferences.

Whenever charges are preferred against any member or officer of a Local Union, the charges shall be filed in writing in duplicate with the Secretary-Treasurer of the Local Union, Joint Council, or General Executive Board which is to try the case. Prior to notifying a member or officer that charges are filed, the Local Union Executive Board, Joint Council Executive Board, or General Executive Board with which the charges have been filed shall review the charges and dismiss them if the charges have not been timely filed or if the act complained of does not constitute a violation subject to discipline under this Constitution or Bylaws of the appropriate union entity. If the charges are dismissed, the charging party shall be notified in writing and may appeal directly to the General President. Appeals from [ 136 ]
