active lawyer's review, such as legal research, gathering
information, and drafting pleadings, briefs, and other similar
documents; (b) communicating with a lawyer's client or third
parties regarding matters such as scheduling, billing, updates on
the status of a client's matters, fact gathering, and confirmation of
receipt or sending of correspondence and messages; (c)
accompanying an active lawyer to a deposition or other discovery
proceeding for the limited purpose of providing clerical assistance
to the lawyer who will appear as a client's representative. A
suspended lawyer shall comply with the requirements of SCR
