judges; law practice prohibition; exceptions

SB 1755 prohibits Arizona judges from practicing law in the state, directly affecting sitting judges. The bill allows two exceptions: judges may represent themselves in court (pro se), and they may provide unpaid legal advice or draft documents for family members without acting as their lawyer in court. It does not permit judges to accept payment for legal services or serve as counsel for family members in any legal forum. This clarifies existing restrictions on judicial conduct to prevent conflicts of interest. The bill is procedural, focusing on defining judicial boundaries rather than creating new public policy.
