La. R. Sup. Ct. 25
A judge permitted by law to engage in the practice of law is subject to the judicial disciplinary proceedings of the Commission for conduct arising from or performed in his or her capacity as an attorney. Action against such a judge by the Commission shall not preclude disciplinary action against him or her by the appropriate authority concerning his or her license to practice law. Where dual jurisdiction exists, the Commission may communicate with the Office of Disciplinary Counsel to coordinate the handling of a matter, to conduct joint investigative efforts, and to evaluate the findings and results of parallel disciplinary matters. Such communications may include the sharing of substantive information and documents necessary to resolve any logistical and procedural issues (including, but not limited to, whether to stay a matter or to allow one disciplinary proceeding to take priority), to prevent duplication of efforts and wasted resources, and to avoid inconsistent disciplinary results. Any information obtained by the Commission or the Office of Disciplinary Counsel through the sharing permitted by this Section may be communicated with members and staff within the respective entities but may not be shared with third parties. Such communications made pursuant to this Section do not violate Section 23 confidentiality, and the information remains confidential pursuant to Section 23 in all other respects.
