#LegalEthics Tidbit: If I tell my client to lie to the court and she refuses, have I engaged in deceptive conduct?

A VA lawyer told his client their case would benefit from a continuance, so he advised her to feign an illness and lie to the court about it in order to get a continuance. The lawyer advised her also to lie to her doctor: “say ‘I’ve been pooping my butt off and I’ve been throwing up… and they’ll give you some nausea ... (cont.)

#LegalEthics Tidbit: How can I make my #AI hallucinations sanctions worse, without even using #AI again?

A FL lawyer submitted a cert. petition to the District Court of Appeal that “cited a non-existent case allegedly from this Court and cited other cases that do not support this proposition.” In response to an order to show cause the lawyer acknowledged that “his normal process is to have artificial intelligence (“AI”) software research ...

RE: https://mastodon.social/@heidilifeldman/117209346171417433

In the thread at the quoted post, I focused on the status of the litigation against Trump/USPS unconstitutionally taking over the process of ballots being mailed to voters who vote from home (e.g, voters who use absentee ballots or vote-by-mail ballots). Bottom line, Trump DoJ sure is acting like they know the Roberts Six will find a way to ok this on procedural grounds, leaving the merits of the case unaddressed.

But let’s suppose for a moment that this doesn’t happen. 1/ #LawFedi

Ok, take a deep breath everyone. I’m going to try to explain what is going on in California v. Trump/League of Women Voters v. Trump, the combined cases being heard by Judge Indira Talwani in the Massachusetts District Court, challenging Trump and USPS efforts to take over vote-from-home and disrupt the general election. 1/ #LawFedi

Hi all! I studied computer science with a focus on RTOS and FP/PL, but I graduated law school earlier this year. I practice at a boutique firm that primarily handles IP cases. I foilboard and I play way too many rhythm games in and out of the arcade.

I contribute to open source projects where I can, and I write up my experience in my digital garden which I’ve been maintaining for 2 years now. It’s also a good place to find usage tips for projects/tools that you might want to use.

My passion for tech also includes privacy, and I’m an advocate for minimizing your digital footprint. GenAI is a scam and its purveyors are causing real harm while they sell it as hard as they can.
