Description

The Rules of Professional Conduct indicate that an attorney who possesses unprivileged information that a judge has violated the Rules of Judicial Conduct shall inform the appropriate authority. And it is professional misconduct for a lawyer to knowingly assist a judge in conduct that is a violation of applicable rules of judicial conduct. Therefore, it is incumbent for every attorney to be familiar with the rules of Judicial Conduct and the type of conduct that is to be expected from the Bench.  

In this interactive presentation, attorneys will gain a working knowledge of the Rules of Judicial Conduct and attorneys will be polled on the appropriate discipline for judicial misconduct.  We will then discuss the actual discipline imposed on the judges.  

Finally, we will also review video clips of unethical conduct by the bench and review the disciplinary procedures used to sanction a judge.  Attorneys have described this presentation as interesting, informative, entertaining, and dynamic.

Opinions and positions stated by presenters of MoBarCLE programs are those of the presenters and not necessarily those of The Missouri Bar. This program is intended as information for lawyers in Missouri, in conjunction with other research they deem necessary, in the exercise of their independent judgment.
