(i) If the commission shall find that no probable cause exists for crediting the charges,
or, if upon all the evidence, it shall find that a respondent has not engaged in unfair
housing practices, the commission shall state its findings of fact and shall issue
and cause to be served on the complainant an order dismissing the complaint as to
the respondent. A copy of the order shall be delivered in all cases to the attorney
general and such other public officers as the commission deems proper.

(j) Until a transcript of the record in a case shall be filed in a court as provided in
subsection (m), the commission may at any time, upon reasonable notice, and in such
manner as it shall deem proper, modify or set aside, in whole or in part, any of its
findings or orders.

(k) Until such time as a hearing is convened pursuant to this section, no publicity shall
be given to any proceedings before the commission, either by the commission or any
employee thereof, the complainant, or the respondent, except that in the event of
a conciliation agreement the agreement shall be made public unless the complainant
and respondent otherwise agree and the commission determines that disclosure is not
required to further the purposes of this chapter. After the complaint issues and before
an order issues, the commission shall not initiate any public notice of any charge
or complaint before the commission, however, the commission may respond to inquiries
about the status of a complaint.
