RULE 18-202.15. RESPONDING TO JUDICIAL AND ATTORNEY MISCONDUCT
COMMENT
[1] Permitting a judicial appointee to take “corrective” measures gives the judicial appointee a wide range of options to deal with unprofessional conduct. Appropriate corrective measures may include direct communication with the judge, attorney, or other judicial appointee who is believed to have committed the violation or other direct action if available. There may be instances of professional misconduct that would warrant a private admonition or referral to a bar association counseling service.
Source: This Rule is derived from former Rule 2.15 of Rule 16-814 (2016).
