1.

For the purposes of article 47, ‘misconduct of a less serious nature’ shall be constituted by conduct that:

(a)

If it occurs in the course of official duties, causes or is likely to cause harm to the proper administration of justice before the Court or the proper internal functioning of the Court, such as:

(i): Interfering in the exercise of the functions of a person referred to in article 47;
(ii): Repeatedly failing to comply with or ignoring requests made by the Presiding Judge or by the Presidency in the exercise of their lawful authority;
(iii): Failing to enforce the disciplinary measures to which the Registrar or a Deputy Registrar and other officers of the Court are subject when a judge knows or should know of a serious breach of duty on their part;

(b)

If it occurs outside the course of official duties, causes or is likely to cause harm to the standing of the Court.

Nothing in this rule precludes the possibility of the conduct set out in sub-rule 1 (a) constituting ‘serious misconduct’ or ‘serious breach of duty’ for the purposes of article 46, paragraph 1(a).
