Show Cause Notice

A show cause notice is a formal document issued by an authority, typically an employer, government agency, or institution, asking an individual or entity to explain or justify their actions or behavior. It is usually given when there is a violation of rules, policies, or expectations, and the recipient is required to "show cause" as to why disciplinary action should not be taken against them.
