Moving Towards Transparency?

I can now begin the process of stepping down from my soap box.

The District of Columbia Board on Professional Responsibility has, for the first time ever, made available on line an annual report of its activities for 2014.

Kudos to the Board for finally heeding the pleas of myself and others and recognizing the need for some level of transparency and accountability.

At first blush, this report looks to be quite informative. It provides a comparative look at the case load going back to 2010.  

One serious shortcoming is that, so far as I can tell, there is no information provided about how long investigations, prosecutions and contested disciplinary matters actually take.

Without that critical piece of information, as we Biblical scholars like to say, the rest is commentary. (Mike Frisch)
