§ 4.18. Waiver of hearing.

Should any party entitled to be heard by the commission, either as a matter of right or as a matter within the commission's discretion, have filed before filing with the commission a petition based on substantially the same facts before the employee relations commission or made, a charge based on substantially the same facts under an arbitration provision of any valid memorandum of understanding, that party shall be deemed to have waived the right or opportunity to be heard by the commission. As to any such matters, the civil service commission will give full faith and credit to final decisions of the employee relations commission and to any final decision of an arbitrator made pursuant to a valid memorandum of understanding.
