R. Miss. Comm'n. Jud. Perform. 9

As amended through October 31, 2024
Rule 9 - MENTAL OR PHYSICAL DISABILITY

When the mental or physical health of a judge is in issue, the Commission may request the judge either (1) to submit to examinations by licensed physicians chosen and paid by the Commission, or (2) to submit to the Commission all reports of recent examinations by licensed physicians relating to the alleged condition. If the judge fails to submit to the examinations or to submit all recent medical reports, such failure shall raise an adverse inference to the judge on such issue, unless the judge's failure was due to circumstances beyond his control. The judge shall be furnished a copy of the report of any examination conducted under this rule.
