The appellate division may discipline by reprimand or censure, or may temporarily suspend or permanently remove any marshal for cause, provided that written charges are first filed with said court, and that the marshal be given due notice thereof and be afforded an opportunity to be heard at a full and complete hearing. The appellate division may, in its discretion, suspend a marshal from the performance of his or her official duties pending a hearing upon the charges. Upon charges being preferred against a marshal by a judge of the appellate division, such court shall forthwith cause notice of suspension of the marshal to be served upon him or her, and the marshal shall thereupon remain suspended until the hearing and determination of the charges. Such hearing shall be held within sixty days from the date of service of notice of suspension upon a marshal, except that the period of time prescribed herein may be extended for good cause shown upon application. In lieu of discipline by temporary suspension or removal, the appellate division may assess a fine, not to exceed five hundred dollars, against any marshal who has been found, after a hearing, to be in violation of the provisions of this article or of the rules and regulations promulgated pursuant thereto.
