Within five (5) days after the formal complaint is filed with the clerk of the court by complaint counsel, the chief justice shall designate a complaint tribunal to conduct a hearing on the formal complaint and to determine the matter; provided, however, the complaint tribunal so designated by the chief justice shall not be composed of members from the same supreme court district as that within which the accused attorney resides. The chief justice shall designate one (1) member of the complaint tribunal to be the presiding judge thereof. Any member of the complaint tribunal who is not an elected judge or chancellor shall be entitled to a per diem as authorized by Section 25-3-69 for each day’s service in attending hearings or necessary business of the tribunal and shall receive reimbursement for necessary expenses and mileage as is authorized by Section 25-3-41. Said per diem and expense reimbursement, subject to funds being appropriated therefor, shall be paid from any available funds appropriated to the Supreme Court.
