Colo. LLP RPC 8.5
Disciplinary Authority; Choice of Law
(a) An LLP admitted to practice in this jurisdiction is subject to the disciplinary
authority of this jurisdiction, regardless of where the LLP’s conduct occurs. An LLP may
be subject to the disciplinary authority of both this jurisdiction and another jurisdiction for
the same conduct.
(b) In any exercise of the disciplinary authority of this jurisdiction, the rules of
professional conduct to be applied shall be as follows:
(1) for conduct in connection with a matter pending before a tribunal, the rules of the
jurisdiction in which the tribunal sits, unless the rules of the tribunal provide otherwise;
and
(2) for any other conduct, the rules of the jurisdiction in which the LLP’s conduct
occurred, or, if the predominant effect of the conduct is in a different jurisdiction, the rules
of that jurisdiction shall be applied to the conduct. An LLP shall not be subject to discipline
if the LLP’s conduct conforms to the rules of a jurisdiction in which the LLP reasonably
believes the predominant effect of the LLP’s conduct will occur.

Unofficial copy of government-published law, reproduced from official sources with full provenance. Not an official publication; verify against official sources before relying on it in a filing. Records in the 'guidance' corpus, and only that corpus, are sub-regulatory (interpretive guidelines, survey procedures) and are not binding law. Validity bounds follow each jurisdiction's declared temporalBasis.
