| 2.3—Preliminary
Screening of Complaints
All complaints shall be examined by Bar Counsel who, after
such preliminary inquiry as appears appropriate, shall determine whether
the complaint is to be docketed. Except as provided in Chapter 5, a complaint
shall be docketed if it: (1) is not unfounded on its face; (2) contains
allegations which, if true, would constitute a violation of the Attorney's
Oath of Office or the rules of professional conduct that would merit discipline;
and (3) is within the jurisdiction of the Board.
