The Code Of Professional Responsibility In The Corporate World: An Abdication Of Professional Self-Regulation, Carl A. Pierce
The Code Of Professional Responsibility In The Corporate World: An Abdication Of Professional Self-Regulation, Carl A. Pierce
University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform
The American Bar Association's Code of Professional Responsibility (Code or CPR) provides the foundation for the regulation of the legal profession by the members of the profession themselves. Although the drafters of the CPR have described it as a body of fundamental ethical principles applicable to all lawyers regardless of the nature of their professional activities, this article examines the vitality of the CPR and professional self-regulation in one particular area of lawyers' activities: corporate practice? The article suggests that the legal profession has abdicated its self-regulatory role, discusses the consequences of this abdication, and advances some alternatives to remedy …

Lawyers' Obligations To The Courts, Byron O. House
Lawyers' Obligations To The Courts, Byron O. House
West Virginia Law Review
This paper will concern itself largely with the duty of lawyers to the courts. It is written from the viewpoint of a country lawyer suddenly catapulted from almost thirty years of practice to his state's court of last resort via eight months on the trial bench. These vantage points have afforded an opportunity to observe the lawyer's duty to the courts in various perspectives. With due respect to the learned scholars who have written on the subject, this small contribution is launched.
Attorney Negligence…A Suit Within A Suit, Richard G. Coggin
Attorney Negligence…A Suit Within A Suit, Richard G. Coggin
West Virginia Law Review
The law today, it would seem, has become, like most professions and sciences a creature of specialization. Not many years ago most practitioners of the law in this country would have considered the general field of negligence a somewhat limited subject. But today, even this small segment of the vast science of law must be divided and subdivided, each individual subdivision being guided by its own special set of rules. Because of this transition from the general to the special, any paper of this sort must be strictly limited in scope. Even the seemingly narrow subject of "attorney negligence” would …

An Inquiry Concerning The Functions Of Procedure In Legal Education, Edson R. Sunderland
An Inquiry Concerning The Functions Of Procedure In Legal Education, Edson R. Sunderland

Procedure has always been the bete noire of the law school teacher. No other subject has developed such divergent opinions or such endless debates. None recurs with such periodic frequency and in no field of legal pedagogy has discussion seemed so barren of results. Three different general sessions of the Association of American Law Schools during the last ten years have been devoted largely or wholly to the subject of teaching procedure, and yet no substantial progress seems to have been made toward a standardized scheme of treatment. Individual teachers and schools have their individual views and policies, and they …

Reinstatement Of Disbarred Attorney, Edson R. Sunderland
Reinstatement Of Disbarred Attorney, Edson R. Sunderland
Articles
The petitioner asked to be reinstated. The court, excepting Justice Fellows, who concurred in the result but expressed no opinion, said they would be glad to reinstate him but for the fact that he was a non-resident, which in their opinion made him ineligible, but they gave their endorsement of his good character by vacating the order of disbarment. The questions which occur are these: 1. Did the court have the power to vacate its order of disbarment after the time for opening, amending or vacating judgments had passed? 2. Did the vacation of the order of disbarment operate ipso …
The Proposed Code Of Legal Ethics For The American Bar Association, Henry M. Bates
The Proposed Code Of Legal Ethics For The American Bar Association, Henry M. Bates
Articles
The effort of the American Bar Association to frame and adopt a code of legal ethics is deserving of more attention from American lawyers than it is receiving. The adoption of such a code has been under consideration for several years. In 1905 the Association at its annual meeting instructed its committee to report at the meeting to be held in the next year upon "the advisability and practicability" of the adoption of such a code. In pursuance of these instructions the committee reported that in its judgment the adoption of such a code was not only advisable, but highly …

The decision of the Supreme Court of Oregon in the case of State ex rel Grievance Committee of State Bar Association v. Tanner, rendered Jan. 12, 19O7, 88 Pac. Rep. 301, is of sufficient importance to merit brief notice. The proceeding was instituted by the grievance committee of the State Bar Association for the removal from practice of the defendant, an attorney at law, under a statute of the State that provides for the removal or suspension of an attorney from practice by the Supreme Court "upon his being convicted of a felony or of a misdemeanor involving moral turpitude."
