Orders and post-order procedures

Unless otherwise ordered, orders imposing discipline or transfers to disability inactive status are effective immediately. The respondent shall refund any part of any fees paid in advance which have not been earned. In the event the client does not obtain another lawyer before the effective date of a disbarment or suspension, it shall be the responsibility of the respondent to move the court, agency, or tribunal in which the proceeding is pending for leave to withdraw. The respondent shall in that event file with the court, agency, or tribunal before which the litigation is pending a copy of the notice pursuant to Rule 23 to opposing counsel or adverse parties.
