%X Complaints against the police in a metropolitan police department are studied over a two-year period. Using multivariate analysis, three factors -- frequency of complaints, the origin of complaints, and the type of complaints -- which may influence whether complaints are sustained are examined. Only the origins of complaints are related to dispositions as predicted. Some of the implications of the findings are also discussed.<p />
