I'm boarded in OB/Gyn and am in the 3rd year of a 4 year J.D. program.
Post a Comment »I take a course next year entitled Professional Responsibility.
So I glanced at next year's course outline and this caught my eye: "Any act of moral turpitude (e.g., fraud, forgery, perjury), even if committed outside the role of attorney may result in discipline." (ABA Model Code of Professional Responsibility)
I'm interested in any attorney's opinion.
