Multistate Professional Responsibility Exam Practice Question
An attorney is handling a highly followed trial. After an unfavorable ruling, the attorney announces to local media that the judge is unfit to serve. Which action aligns best with maintaining respect for the judge's position and minimizing harm to the judicial process?
The lawyer files a recusal motion if the judge's bias is proven and refrains from public attacks on the judge's character.
The lawyer criticizes the judge in press announcements to expose perceived injustices in the justice system.
The lawyer calls for a different judge and does not supply a reason, demonstrating disapproval of the current judge's competence.
Openly disparaging the judge's fitness can erode trust in the system. Concerns about fairness are addressed by filing a motion or similar request supported by facts. Challenging the judge through media outlets that lack factual support undermines the tribunal's integrity. Seeking recusal with documentation shows respect for the process and protects the client's interests, while unsubstantiated public attacks or demands for a replacement judge do not address genuine concerns about impartiality.
