The amended Procedures Regulating Professional Conduct of Attorneys at Law (“Procedures”) became effective January 1, 2002. See In Re Amendments to the Procedures Regulating Professional Conduct of Attorneys at Law (July 9, 2001). At that time the Committee on Professional Conduct was expanded from seven to fourteen voting members, in two hearing panels (Panel A and Panel B), and a new group of seven “reserve” members (Panel C) was added. Member terms are reduced from seven to six years under the amended Procedures, and necessary adjustments have been made here.
