Status of lawyer disciplinary matters - Pending disciplinary complaints

Pursuant to SCR 22.11 PDF, the Director of the Office of Lawyer Regulation (OLR) is authorized to file a disciplinary complaint alleging misconduct against an attorney when cause to proceed has been found by the Preliminary Review Committee.
