Colo. R. Civ. P. 242.28

As amended through Rule Change 2024(9), effective May 2, 2024
Rule 242.28 - Alleged Inability to Defend Proceeding

During a disciplinary proceeding under C.R.C.P. 242, the respondent, the respondent's counsel, the Regulation Counsel, or the Presiding Disciplinary Judge may raise an issue as to the respondent's ability to defend the proceeding. In that event, the Presiding Disciplinary Judge may under this section 242.28 issue an interim stay of the disciplinary proceeding in accordance with the disability procedures set forth in C.R.C.P. 243.7. After following those procedures, the Presiding Disciplinary Judge may under this section 242.28 place the disciplinary proceeding in abeyance, lift the interim stay, or take other actions in accordance with C.R.C.P. 243.7. An interim stay or abeyance governs all phases of a disciplinary proceeding, including the respondent's response to a request for investigation, investigative interviews of the respondent, and investigative activities that implicate the respondent's rights under C.R.C.P. 45 or other rules.
