Closed Captioned.
How should bar counsel respond to allegations that lawyers filed frivolous legal challenges to the results of the 2020 presidential election? Should they seek to punish the lawyers for violating Rule of Professional Conduct ("RPC") 3.1, which forbids frivolous advocacy, or should they leave it to trial judges to decide whether to sanction the lawyers under Fed. R. Civ. P. 11 and similar state procedural rules? How should bar counsel react to complaints that lawyers lied to the public about the election results? Might the lawyers be sanctioned for dishonesty and deceit in violation of RPC 8.4(c), even if the lawyers were not practicing law when they spoke, or should bar counsel steer clear of politics, on one hand, and potential First Amendment challenges, on the other? When does lawyers' misbehavior merit a disciplinary response and when is it better addressed informally, such as by professional ostracism, or by other legal processes?
Four legal ethics experts with a range of experience and controversial perspectives will debate these questions: Ellen Brotman, a Philadelphia litigator who represents lawyers in disciplinary proceedings; Lonnie Brown, a former litigation partner at a national law firm, who teaches legal ethics at Georgia Law School; Bruce Green, a former federal prosecutor who teaches legal ethics at Fordham Law School; and Rebecca Roiphe, a former state prosecutor who teaches legal ethics at New York Law School. Each of the panelists writes on legal ethics topics, participates in professional activities relating to professional regulation, and is an expert in this field.
