IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that a copy of this Order with the attached draft copy of the proposed revisions to the Rules be electronically published on the State Bar of Montana website, http://www.montanabar.org, and on the website for the Judicial Branch, http://www.courts.mt.gov, and that notice of this Order be published in the next available issue of The Montana Lawyer.
