ELC 16.1
                  EFFECT ON PENDING PROCEEDINGS


These rules and any subsequent amendments will apply in their
entirety, on the effective date as ordered by the Supreme Court,
to any pending matter or investigation that has not yet been
ordered to hearing.  They will apply to other pending matters
except as would not be feasible or would work an injustice.  The
hearing officer or panel chair assigned to hear a matter, or the
Chair in a matter pending before the Board, may rule on the
appropriate procedure with a view to insuring a fair and orderly
proceeding.
