Google’s AI says: An attorney who ignores a client’s demand to prepare for trial and instead negotiates a conditional plea agreement violates several American Bar Association (ABA) Model Rules of Professional Conduct. The core violations stem from disregarding the client’s authority over the objectives of the representation, failing to communicate adequately, and failing to act with reasonable diligence.
Google’s AI also says: A defense attorney who allows a defense expert to lie in a report to the court violates several ABA Model Rules of Professional Conduct, primarily Rule 3.3: Candor Toward the Tribunal. This rule prohibits knowingly offering false evidence and requires lawyers to take reasonable remedial measures, including disclosure to the court, upon discovering false evidence. The attorney also violates the general prohibition against dishonesty and misrepresentation, as well as the obligation to represent their client competently and diligently without engaging in fraudulent conduct.
Joe Howard is in possession of e-mails (or should be) from July 30, 2015 that tell him in no uncertain terms that he was not to negotiate a plea deal and instead prepare for trial (As the previous Post’s PDF alludes too).
I’m in possession of documents that prove Joe knew, or should have known the shill’s 2015 report was full of lies…
Got an e-mail into Megan E. Lutz-Priefert, hopefully she will respond so I can get her thoughts on this “new” information (she was my ยง2255 lawyer back in 2018).
