Dismissal: The Chief of Police (or designee) may elect not to investigate and thereby dismiss
certain complaints. The grounds for dismissal of complaints are outlined in OMS 503.01(5).
Formal Investigation: All allegations of misconduct that are not classified as minor misconduct,
service complaints, or dismissals will be formally investigated. … Nothing will prevent division or
district level supervisory or command officers from conducting an initial investigation prior to
forwarding the issue to the Internal Affairs Division for a full investigation . . .
Informal Investigation: Informal investigations are conducted when there is a complaint of minor
misconduct. If applicable, the investigation should include debriefing the subject officer regarding
a complainant’s concerns about the officer’s actions or quality of service. The informal
investigation is an expedited process that does not result in a formal finding or the imposition of
discipline.

e. No Misconduct:
Even if all aspects of the complaint were true, no act of misconduct would have occurred. An
allegation that fails to describe at least a potential violation of federal, state, or municipal law, or
city or Department policy will be dismissed. Occasionally, a complaint that fails to state
misconduct may merit a referral to the Chief’s Office for policy or other considerations or to
mediation as a means of improving police community relations. A complaint may be dismissed if it
is apparent that no misconduct was committed and if it is likely that additional investigation would
not reach a different conclusion.
f. False or Trivial:
The complaint is trivial, frivolous, false, or not credible.
1. Allegations determined to be intentionally and materially false will be dismissed.
2. Trivial or frivolous complaints may be dismissed. Trivial or frivolous complaints allege minor
technical violations of procedural rules which have negligible adverse effects on the public or the
credibility of the Department.
3. Complaints that are grossly illogical or improbable may be dismissed during intake by IAD or
recommended for dismissal by bureau, district or division supervisors, ….
