Elliott E. Cheatham: His Contributions To A Developing Sense Of Professional Responsibility, Robert E. Mathews Dec 1968

Elliott E. Cheatham: His Contributions To A Developing Sense Of Professional Responsibility, Robert E. Mathews

Vanderbilt Law Review

It may not, after all, be difficult to be a nunc pro tunc prophet, but it takes real imagination to think of it. Hindsight is quite another matter; all of us are constantly explaining how a better decision years ago would have made for a happier world today. But to think in 1947 of assuming oneself to have been prophesying in 1897 as to what would be the state of affairs fifty years thence reveals an imaginative gift of some magnitude. Not only does it offer a sure-fire guaranty of accuracy of prediction, but also it dramatizes the fallibility of …

Professional Responsibility Of The Civil Practitioner: Teaching Legal Ethics In The Contracts Course, Monroe H. Freedman Jan 1968

Professional Responsibility Of The Civil Practitioner: Teaching Legal Ethics In The Contracts Course, Monroe H. Freedman

Hofstra Law Faculty Scholarship

In two earlier papers I have written about the professional responsibility of the attorney in criminal practice. Surprisingly, a number of intelligent and experienced lawyers have suggested that problems of the same kind and complexity do not arise, at least with the same frequency, in the work of the civil practitioner. This is a serious misconception, although there are certainly important differences in the civil practitioner's role. For example, unlike the criminal defense lawyer, the civil practitioner does not have the same problems relating to the presumption of innocence, the constitutional right to counsel, and the constitutional privilege against self-incrimination.? …

Unauthorized Practice Of Law-Union Program Of Hiring Attorneys Is Unauthorized Practice Of Law--Illinois State Bar Ass'n V. United Mine Workers Of America, Michigan Law Review

Michigan Law Review

District 12 of the United Mine Workers (UMW) employed an attorney on a salary basis to prosecute members' claims under the Workmen's Compensation Act. Members were free to employ other counsel, but if they sought help from the union lawyer, the union agreed not to interfere with the attorney-client relationship. The attorney prepared his case from filed reports of the accidents, and, generally, his first contact with the union member was when they appeared before the Commission. Since the attorney was compensated by the union, the entire amount received in award or settlement went to the member. The Illinois Bar …


The Professional Responsibility Of The Prosecuting Attorney, Monroe H. Freedman Jan 1967

The Professional Responsibility Of The Prosecuting Attorney, Monroe H. Freedman

Hofstra Law Faculty Scholarship

This is the first of a two-part treatment of the ethical problems of prosecuting attorneys. Mr. Freedman explores certain practices allegedly engaged in by prosecutors, pointing up the unique decisions they must make and the ethical implications of their actions. He examines six areas of particular difficulty, attempting to delineate the fine line between strategy and unethical activity in each.


Attorney-Client-Client's Right To Engage Out-Of-State Attorney For Advice Concerning Federal Claim Is A Privilege And Immunity Of National Citizenship--Spanos V. Skouras Theatre Corp., Michigan Law Review Jan 1967

Attorney-Client-Client's Right To Engage Out-Of-State Attorney For Advice Concerning Federal Claim Is A Privilege And Immunity Of National Citizenship--Spanos V. Skouras Theatre Corp., Michigan Law Review

Michigan Law Review

The state and federal courts, existing side by side within the boundaries of each state, separately control admission to practice law before their respective bars. Although membership in a state bar is generally a prerequisite for admission to the bar of a federal court, the two systems do function under separate and distinct ground rules, and they appear to have done so with a minimum of friction. However, the principal case is indicative of the problems that may arise when state policy on the right to practice law within the state conflicts with federal policy.


Labor Law-Two Views Of A Labor Relations Consultant's Duty To Report Under Section 203 Of The Lmrda, Michigan Law Review Jan 1967

Labor Law-Two Views Of A Labor Relations Consultant's Duty To Report Under Section 203 Of The Lmrda, Michigan Law Review

Michigan Law Review

Title II of the Labor-Management Reporting and Disclosure Act (LMRDA) requires unions, union officials, union employees, employers and "labor relations consultants" to file various reports with the Secretary of Labor. The purpose of these provisions is to discourage corrupt, though not necessarily illegal, labor management activities by disclosing them for public scrutiny. Section 203(b) of the Act, which is aimed at the "labor relations consultant," states that "every person" who agrees with an employer to "directly or indirectly" (1) "persuade employees" regarding their right to organize and bargain collectively or (2) inform the employer of certain union-employee activities must file …

Attorneys--Self-Incrimination--The Attorney's Privilege Against Self-Incrimination In A Disbarment Proceeding, Michigan Law Review Dec 1966

Attorneys--Self-Incrimination--The Attorney's Privilege Against Self-Incrimination In A Disbarment Proceeding, Michigan Law Review

Michigan Law Review

A state court has jurisdiction to deal with the alleged misconduct of attorneys practicing before it either explicitly by statute or by ' virtue of its power to control the conduct of its own affairs. Indeed, it can suspend or disbar an attorney who fails to maintain the standard of conduct established for members of the legal profession. One aspect of such a standard is that an attorney is bound not to obstruct the administration of justice, a duty which imposes upon him an affirmative obligation to cooperate with the courts. The question frequently arises whether, in order to satisfy …
