(a) If any person, whether a member or not, shall be guilty of any disorder in the presence of either house or a Committee of the Whole, or in a joint meeting of both houses, while in session, the presiding officer of the house or joint meeting or Chair of the Committee of the Whole may order the person into immediate custody. The sergeant at arms shall immediately take the person into custody and detain him or her until the further order of the house, joint meeting, or Committee of the Whole, before which offense was committed.
