The Commission accomplishes this mission through its investigation of complaints of judicial misconduct, wrongdoing or disability. In cases where judges, commissioners and candidates for judicial office are found to have engaged in misconduct or to be incapacitated, the Kentucky Constitution authorizes the Commission to take appropriate disciplinary action, including issu- ing admonitions, reprimands, censures, suspensions, or removal from office. http://courts.ky.gov/commissionscommittees/JCC
