La. R. Sup. Ct. 10
If the Commission finds good cause, it shall recommend to the Supreme Court the discipline of the judge. The affirmative vote of a majority of the Commission is required for a recommendation of discipline of a judge or for dismissal of the proceedings. The failure or refusal of a judge to cooperate in an investigation, or the use of dilatory practices, frivolous or unfounded responses or arguments, or other uncooperative behavior may be considered by the Commission in determining whether or not to recommend discipline to this Court and may bear on the severity of the discipline actually recommended.
If, after a hearing, the Commission finds that a judge violated one or more provisions of the Code of Judicial Conduct or of Article V, § 25(C) of the Constitution but concludes that a recommendation of discipline is not warranted, the Commission is authorized to publicly remind, caution, or admonish the judge upon the affirmative vote of a majority of the Commission. Any such reminder, caution, or admonishment is not considered discipline, but may be referenced in any subsequent proceeding before the Commission in accordance with 3(e) of this rule.
