6230. It is the intent of the Legislature that the State Bar of California seek ways and means to identify and rehabilitate attorneys with impairment due to substance use or a mental health disorder affecting competency so that attorneys so afflicted may be treated and returned to the practice of law in a manner that will not endanger the public health and safety.

(Amended by Stats. 2019, Ch. 698, Sec. 17. (SB 176) Effective January 1, 2020.)
