Multistate Professional Responsibility Exam Practice Question
Judge Davis is presiding over a commercial dispute where the parties have not addressed a vital precedent in their filings. The judge concludes that important legal points have been overlooked. Which approach best aligns with performing these duties impartially, competently, and diligently?
Seek private insight from a mentor regarding the unaddressed legal authority
Take the parties' briefs under advisement while the court researches the vital precedent overlooked by the parties
Order supplemental briefing from both sides regarding the unaddressed legal authority
Proceed with a judgment using the current record while disregarding the unexamined precedent
Inviting all parties to address a missing court decision or statute promotes thorough legal analysis and fair treatment. Consulting a private mentor or issuing a ruling on incomplete information may undermine open and balanced adjudication. A concerted effort to gather and review significant legal sources displays diligence, competence, and respect for the process.
