Question: v. Libbey-Owens-Ford Glass Co., 376 F.2d 711 (7th Cir. 1967), stated that section 2(d) shows that the legislature contemplated multiplicity of actions and provides a court with two options: stay the entire proceeding pending arbitration, or, if the issue is severable, the stay may be granted with respect to that issue only. 710 ILCS 5/2(d) (West 1994).

Question: Formal proceedings can only be commenced after a finding by the commission of substantial evidence to support the charges. See § 8 — 16—4(c). We are of the opinion that these procedures ensure expeditious review of complaints of judicial misconduct while safeguarding the rights of judges and their judicial independence. Furthermore, unlike many quasi-judicial bodies, the commission’s role is restricted to making recommendations to this Court. Upon a finding of judicial misconduct, it is the responsibility of the commission to recommend a sanction including, but not limited to, censure, suspension, or removal from office. See § 8-16-4(e). We have steadfastly held that the authority of this Court to discipline judges is plenary and exclusive.
