‘‘[A] hearing such as this is not the trial of a criminal
          or civil action or suit, but an investigation by the court
          into the conduct of one of its own officers, and that,
          therefore, while the complaint should be sufficiently
          informing to advise the . . . attorney of the charges
          made against [her], it is not required that it be marked
          by the same precision of statement, or conformity to
          the recognized formalities or technicalities of pleadings,
          as are expected in complaints in civil or criminal
          actions.’’ (Internal quotation marks omitted.) Burton v.
          Mottolese, 267 Conn. 1, 20–21, 835 A.2d 998 (2003), cert.
          denied, 541 U.S. 1073, 124 S. Ct. 2422, 158 L. Ed. 2d
