If OCR, after investigating a charge of discrimination against a school, school district, or college, determines that a violation of the law has occurred and conciliation efforts are unsuccessful, the Department of Education may refer the charge to the Department of Justice. The Department of Justice may, within its prosecutorial discretion, initiate litigation.
