tered or completed minimum continuing legal edu- cation, or is exempt from minimum continuing legal education. The Statewide Grievance Com- mittee shall submit to the clerk of the Superior Court for the Hartford Judicial District a list of attorneys who did not provide proof of compliance with attorney registration or minimum continuing legal education, or exemption from minimum con- tinuing legal education. Upon order of the court, the attorneys so listed and referred to the clerk shall be deemed administratively suspended from the practice of law in this state until such time as compliance has occurred and proof of same provided to the Statewide Grievance Committee, which suspension shall be effective upon publica- tion of the list in the Connecticut Law Journal. An administrative suspension of an attorney for failure to comply with attorney registration or mini- mum continuing legal education shall not be con- sidered discipline, but an attorney who is placed on administrative suspension for such failure shall be ineligible to practice law as an attorney admit- ted to practice in this state, and shall not be con- sidered in good standing pursuant to Section 2- 65 of these rules until such time as proof of compli- ance is provided to the Statewide Grievance Com- mittee. (b) An attorney aggrieved by an order placing the attorney on administrative suspension for fail- ing to comply with Section 2-27 (d) or 2-27A may make an application to the Superior Court to have the order vacated, by filing the application with the Superior Court for the Hartford Judicial District within thirty days of the date that the order is published, and mailing a copy of the same by certified mail, return receipt requested, to the Statewide Grievance Committee. The application shall set forth the reasons why the application should be granted. The court shall schedule a hearing on the application, which shall be limited to whether good cause exists to vacate the sus- pension order. (c) The notice required by this section shall be sent by regular mail to the last address registered by the attorney pursuant to Section 2-26 and Sec- tion 2-27 (d) and to any email address on record with the Judicial Branch. (Adopted June 11, 2021, to take effect Jan. 1, 2022.)
