Order 15-01: Review of the Office of Lawyer Regulation
In February 2015, then-Chief Justice Shirley S. Abrahamson petitioned the court to create rules providing for review of the Rules of Professional Conduct for Attorneys and the organization, operation, and procedures of the lawyer discipline system and the creation of a Lawyer Regulation Review Committee. A public hearing was held Sept. 21, 2015. Following discussion at an open rules conference in November 2015, the justices voted 5-2 to dismiss the petition as improper subject matter for a rules petition.
Order Issued: December 21, 2015
