Problem
In re Ositis, do the Oregon ethical rules, which the court found the attorney violated, have equivalents in the ABA Model Rules? What are they? Did the attorney violate any other ABA Model Rules? The court disagreed with the attorney's argument that his conduct was appropriate because he was using standard investigate techniques. Do you agree with the court's reasoning? Why or why not? Do you agree with the court's reasoning that the attorney should be responsible for the investigator's actions even if the attorney did not hire him? Why or why not?
