The above-captioned matter was heard as a contested case on October 30 and December 8, 2008, at which times the complainant and the respondents appeared, stipulated to certain facts, and presented testimony, exhibits and argument on the complaint. The complainant, who is incarcerated, appeared via teleconference, pursuant to the January 2004 memorandum of understanding between the Commission and the Department of Correction. See Docket No. CV 03-0826293, Anthony Sinchak v. FOIC et al, Superior Court, J.D. of Hartford at Hartford, Corrected Order dated January 27, 2004 (Sheldon, J.). This matter was consolidated for hearing with docket #FIC 2008-328, Bryan Jordan v. James M.

James Lewis, Chief, Police Department, City of New Haven; and Police Department, City of New Haven.

That record was ordered disclosed in docket #FIC 2008-328, above.
The following order by the Commission is hereby recommended on the basis of the record concerning the above-captioned complaint:
