Multistate Professional Responsibility Exam Practice Question

Contessa represents a landlord in a damage dispute with a tenant. She uncovers embarrassing personal information about the tenant’s relative that is irrelevant to the property issue. Contessa threatens the tenant that she will publish the relative’s past if the tenant does not abandon the claim. Is this conduct acceptable?

  • Yes. Relying on personal data that does not relate to the case remains an acceptable tactic if it secures a settlement

  • Yes. Mentioning private background details is appropriate if they provide genuine leverage in the dispute

  • No. Threatening to reveal personal data that does not pertain to the central dispute disrespects a third person's rights

  • No. Attorneys may not mention personal data in a hearing, even when it points to bias
