Docket entry

051990 Judicial Inquiry & Review Comm'n v. Elliott 06/08/2006 Upon consideration of a complaint filed by the Judicial Inquiry and Review Commission of Virginia presenting seven charges of misconduct by a sitting judge, it is held that the complaint is not properly before the Court. Because the judge had previously accepted the Commission's oral offer to enter into a detailed supervision agreement in lieu of having a formal complaint filed against him, he had begun to comply with the terms of such offer, and he had not violated those terms, the agreement was binding and the judge was entitled to its benefit. The complaint is dismissed without prejudice.
