In January 2014, an attorney requested that the Judicial Conduct Commission amend Section R595-3-13 to provide that a complainant could require the Judicial Conduct Commission, upon dismissal of the complainant's complaint, to seek, from the Judicial Council's Ethics Advisory Committee, an ethics advisory opinion on the ethical issues raised in the complaint. The Judicial Conduct Commission studied the request and sought and received input from the courts' general counsel, who staffs the Judicial Council's Ethics Advisory Committee. In April 2014, the Judicial Conduct Commission notified the attorney that although it was declining to amend Section R595-3-13, the Judicial Conduct Commission would consider requests to seek ethics advisory opinions on a case-by-case basis.
