Rule of Limitation
Disciplinary sanctions or diversions may not be based on conduct reported more than
five years after the date the conduct is discovered or reasonably should have been
discovered. But there is no rule of limitation where the allegations involve fraud, conversion, or conviction of a serious crime, or where the lawyer is alleged to have concealed the
conduct.
