The opinion
NIX, Chief Justice,
concurring.
I join in the majority opinion. However, I wish to take this occasion to make clear that this Court, to the extent its own Rules permit, stands ready to assist any sister state in policing the practice of law within its borders. We recognize and are ever sensitive to the fact that such administration frequently requires interstate cooperation.
Our disciplinary rules are such as to permit the interim suspension of an attorney, pending the final resolution of charges, if there is good reason to believe that his continued practice of law will cause immediate and substantial harm. An attorney may also be placed on inactive status. It would be within the power of disciplinary counsel to seek either of those remedies in an appropriate case. Upon the entry of an order for either of those temporary measures, our rules of confidentiality would not preclude our making *291 known that change of status to the proper authority in another state. However, the instant matter is not one in which disciplinary counsel has sought an interim suspension, or any other temporary measure, pending final resolution of the charges against the attorney involved.
