ELC 12.2
                  METHODS OF SEEKING REVIEW


(a) Two Methods for Seeking Review of Board Decisions.  The
methods for seeking Supreme Court review of Board decisions
entered under rule 11.12(e) are: review as a matter of
right, called "appeal”, and review with Court permission,
called "discretionary review".  Both "appeal" and
"discretionary review" are called "review".

(b) Power of Court Not Affected.  This rule does not affect
the Court’s power to review any Board decision recommending
suspension or disbarment and to exercise its inherent and
exclusive jurisdiction over the lawyer discipline and
disability system.  The Court notifies the respondent lawyer
and disciplinary counsel of the Court’s intent to exercise
sua sponte review within 90 days of the Court receiving
notice of the decision under rule 3.5(a), rule 7.1(h), or
otherwise.
