SCR 22.14
Answer, no contest
(1) The respondent shall file an answer with the supreme court
and serve a copy on the office of lawyer regulation within 20 days after
service of the complaint. The referee may, for cause, set a different
time for the filing of the answer.
(2) The respondent may by answer plead no contest to
allegations of misconduct in the complaint. The referee shall make a
determination of misconduct in respect to each allegation to which no
contest is pleaded and for which the referee finds an adequate factual
basis in the record. In a subsequent disciplinary or reinstatement
proceeding, it shall be conclusively presumed that the respondent
engaged in the misconduct determined on the basis of a no contest plea.

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.
