D. Guam GNLR 22.9
Appointment of Counsel
Whenever counsel is to be appointed pursuant to these Rules to investigate allegations of misconduct or
prosecute disciplinary proceedings or in conjunction with a reinstatement petition filed by a disciplined
attorney, the Court shall notify the Standing Committee on Discipline to appoint as counsel one of its
members. If all members of such disciplinary committee decline appointment, or such appointment is
clearly inappropriate, this Court shall appoint as counsel one or more members of the Bar of this Court
to investigate allegations of misconduct or to prosecute disciplinary proceedings under this Rule,
provided, however, that the respondent-attorney may move to disqualify an attorney so appointed
upon a showing of good cause. Counsel, once appointed, may not resign unless permission to do so is
given by this Court.
