Disciplinary Committee for solicitors
Ms. Sundstrom,
Thank you for your response in Norwegian. I have used google translate to translate it, so am not sure whether the translation is accurate. Here is google’s translation:
We have received your e-mail with your vouchers.
Disciplinary authorities with complaints of lawyers who should have acted in contravention of the Code of Conduct or otherwise in violation of Court Act or other law, as well complain that a lawyer has demanded too high fees, see Attorney Regulations § 5-3 and Processing Rules Bar Association disciplinary board.
Disciplinary authorities are primarily lawyer's conduct in relation to the lawyer's ethical rules and only to a limited extent, decide, and if necessary overrule, the quality of the advice the lawyer gives the opportunity the treatment of specific cases. For the lawyer's professional execution of the order shall be deemed a breach of Code of Conduct, it must be clear errors or omissions from the lawyer's side. A general quality assessment of lawyers' work and academic performance of the contract falls basically outside the complaints procedure.
Complaints against lawyers who are members of the Bar Association, dealt with by the Bar Association's disciplinary board in the first instance. In these appeals is the Disciplinary Committee appeal. In complaints against lawyers who are not members of the Bar Association, the committee's first and only resort, unless the prosecutor agrees that the Bar Association's regional committee shall consider the matter.
Supreme Court Chief Justice Tore Schei is a practicing attorney and your inquiry will be to archive the disciplinary authorities can not resolve your complaint.
The following paragraph is unclear from the translation: “Supreme Court Chief Justice Tore Schei is a practicing attorney and your inquiry will be to archive the disciplinary authorities can not resolve your complaint.”
Are you stating that:
1. The matter is under investigation by the Disciplinary committee and my complaint is to be archived IF the disciplinary authorities can not resolve my complaint, or
2. The Disciplinary Committee has made a decision on the complaint, that the disciplinary committee can not resolve my complaint, and that my complaint is being archived?
Sincerely,
