A judge shall have power, for reasonable cause shown, to suspend any attorney-at-law from practising as such during any specified period or to order the attorney-at-law’s name to be struck off the Court Roll.
Before a judge takes such action as is laid down in subsection (1) hereof, the judge shall communicate or cause to be communicated in writing to the attorney-at-law concerned the nature of the complaint against that attorney-at-law and such attorney-at-law shall be entitled to call witnesses and to be heard.
A judge may, if the judge thinks fit, at any time, order the Clerk of Court to replace on the Court Roll the name of an attorney-at-law whose name had been struck off the Roll.
