From memory (you've been warned), I think JM has 20 days to respond after the probable cause order is filed with the Bar's disciplinary clerk. As far as I know, the order hasn't even been filed yet.
The most likely reason why the order hasn't been filed yet (if that's accurate) is Henley is giving JM time to consider his "offer" of sanction, and/or JM is considering/has decided to accept the discipline & put an end to this bar complaint (no matter that his atty is quoted as saying he "couldn't imagine" this not going to "trial" (a full disciplinary hearing).
If JM is insisting on a full hearing, best guess is that we won't know the initial result for several months down the road (perhaps longer, since holiday season is approaching). And, JM can appeal to the AZ Supreme Court whatever is handed down.

Thanks! I guess I won't wait with wormy breath for any rapid conclusion. I don't envy him having to make this decision, either give up more months of his life fighting this made up bunchabull or take the sanction, get on with his life and career and let Princess Pain win even the tiniest of victories.
My fear is if he does take a sanction (or even fights it all the way and still loses), could it help her in her appeal? We've seen how Clark can twist reality and ignore facts, the whole thing just worries me.
