Section R595-4-1 - Dismissals with Warning or on Conditions

A. The Commission may dismiss a complaint or formal complaint with a warning or on conditions of no further misbehavior if:

1. the judge stipulates that the conduct complained of has occurred;

2. the Commission finds that the stipulated conduct constitutes misconduct; and

3. the Commission finds that the misconduct is troubling but relatively minor misbehavior and that no public sanction is warranted.

B. The Commission will not dismiss a complaint or formal complaint with a warning or on conditions of no further misbehavior if:

1. the Commission finds that a public sanction is warranted;

2. the Commission has previously dismissed a complaint or formal complaint against the judge on conditions of no further misbehavior and the current misconduct violates such conditions; or

3. the Commission finds that the current misconduct is the same or similar to misconduct established from a previous complaint or formal complaint that was dismissed with a warning or on conditions of no further misbehavior.
