Multistate Professional Responsibility Exam Practice Question
While preparing to move forward against a defendant for illegal substance distribution, DA (District Attorney) Morgan receives new lab data showing the material seized might not contain prohibited elements. Morgan has not informed defense counsel. Which statement best reflects Morgan’s responsibilities?
Morgan can rely on the initial test and wait until post-conviction proceedings to address conflicting findings
Morgan can decide not to offer the new lab report unless the defense specifically demands it
Morgan is responsible for revealing the new lab results and reevaluating whether the charges remain viable
Morgan can dismiss the investigative report if state agents see the updated testing as unproven
Government lawyers disclose information that challenges their case to maintain fairness. Withholding new lab data that undermines the basis for prosecution violates ethical rules. Prosecutors must reconsider the strength of the charges and share relevant information so the accused can prepare a defense.
