Notice to Referred Lawyer

As amended through June 11, 2024

(a) Prior to assuming jurisdiction, SLAC will notify the referred lawyer and provide an opportunity to respond. If jurisdiction is assumed, the chairperson will assign the matter to a designee for case development, notify the referred lawyer of the matter and direct the lawyer to meet with the designee.

Notices to the referred lawyer will include a reminder that failure to respond to or cooperate with SLAC is grounds for discipline under Oregon RPC 8.1(c) and may be reported to the proper authority. If a case is not opened, the chairperson will notify the source of the referral that the matter is being dismissed without further SLAC action.

Adopted effective 4/14/2023.
