Grievance Procedure Under the Americans with Disabilities Act

This grievance procedure is established to resolve complaints of disability discrimination arising under Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA) in a prompt and fair manner. The Clark County Human Resources Policy 3.0 governs employment-related complaints of disability discrimination. 

The written grievance needs to be submitted to the ADA Coordinator as soon as possible, but no later than 60 calendar days after the alleged violation and contain information about the alleged discrimination. 

In order to assist Clark County in obtaining the necessary information for your complaint, please follow these steps:

1. Complete the Clark County’s District Court ADA Grievance Form (below)
2. Sign and Submit the form
3. If you have any additional attachments you'd like the Court to consider, send them to: 

ADA Coordinator

Within 15 calendar days of receipt of the complaint, the ADA Coordinator will meet with the grievant to discuss the complaint and possible resolutions. Within 15 calendar days of the meeting, the ADA Coordinator will respond in writing to the grievant. The response will explain the position of the Court and may offer options for substantive resolution of the grievance. The grievant may appeal the decision within 15 calendar days of receipt of the response, to the Presiding Judge.
