in the interests of justice, set aside or modify the

interim suspension. (h) At the presentment hearing, the attorney shall have the right to counsel, to be heard in his or her own defense, and to present evidence and witnesses in his or her behalf. After the hearing, the court shall enter an order dismissing the pre- sentment complaint, or imposing discipline upon such attorney in the form of suspension for a period of time, disbarment or such other discipline as the court deems appropriate. If the finding of guilt was based on the lawyer’s misappropriation of clients’ funds or other property held in trust, the court shall enter an order disbarring the attorney for a minimum of twelve years pursuant to Sec- tions 2-47A and 2-53 (g). (i) Whenever the court enters an order sus- pending or disbarring an attorney pursuant to a presentment filed under this section, the court may appoint a trustee, pursuant to Section 2-64, to protect the interests of the attorney’s clients and to secure the attorney’s clients’ funds accounts. (j) If an attorney disciplined solely under the provisions of this section demonstrates to the court that the attorney’s finding of guilt was later vacated or reversed, the court shall vacate any disciplinary order entered pursuant to this section. The vacating of such disciplinary order shall not automatically terminate any other disciplinary pro- ceeding then pending against the attorney. (k) Immunity from prosecution granted to an attorney is not a bar to disciplinary proceedings, unless otherwise ordered by the court. The grant- ing of a pretrial diversion program to an attorney charged with a serious crime, as defined herein, is not a bar to disciplinary proceedings, unless otherwise ordered by the court that granted the program to the attorney.
