1. Introduction and Ethical standpoint The recommended approach to be pursued will be contrary to Richard and Bridget. It shall be to argue ‘no fault or negligence’ and adopt ‘Penny’s’ information as admissible evidence to present a relationship of trust between Natalie and Elizabeth. During engagement as an officer of the court) ASCR 4.1.5 provides ASCR and relevant law must be adhered to. The form of lawyer adopted shall be the ‘responsible lawyer, ‘focusing on the lawyer’s role as an OC.... has an overriding duty to maintain justice’ A lawyer’s duty to the court and administration of justice is paramount.

Adams case caused amendment of WADC 10.5 to allow for proportionality. WADC 10.5 Affirmed on the English ITF panel in Gasquet’s case. Gasquet provides if an alternate source of contamination can be established pertaining to WADC 10.5, period of ineligibility is removed. If our client is deemed ineligible circumstances in which she held no fault or negligence, proportionality is not reached. The case is being heard de novo, although this is conflicting with WADC’s second purpose of harmonisation across an international level. Could the panel following direction from cases within the Commonwealth evidence a change of direction for a historically punitive panel? 5. Source of Contamination The source of the contamination must be determined. Natalie declares she has no idea how the substances came into her system and it has been ascertained Stanozolol can be ingested orally. Natalie has a suspicion her drink may have been contaminated, collaborated by ‘Penny’s’ phone call. The training camp is irrefutably the source of contamination due to three accounts of positive tests. To prove one of these sources the culprit for the contamination it must be proved on the balance of probabilities. A number of potential sources shall be rejected and the most probable source determined. 1. Contamination by a teammate due to the competitiveness of the selection

An attorney’s reputation is built by the care taken in brief writing. The judge generally is influenced by an attorney’s brief than by any other form of argument made; therefore, the brief carries persuasive impact, for good or bad, not only for a current client but all future ones. Linda H. Edwards, Legal Writing and Analysis, 167 (4th ed. 2015). Although the six duties of ethical conduct in brief-writing are equally relevant, I have placed six duties of ethical conduct in the following order, in the order of highest importance to least importance.

Question #9. What is the ethical obligation of a litigation support staff member to the client? To the court? Of a litigation support person from outside firm or consultant?
The main argument introduced in the debate considers whether a practicing solicitor can adhere to the traditional values of moral and ethical integrity that have been reinforced through a set of principles such as the Solicitors Regulation Authority Code of Conduct (SRA). The latter consists of ten mandatory principles that are the professional requirements expected of any solicitor. Traditionally, ethical and moral truthfulness have formed the basis of a competent lawyer and thus when adhering to the traditional principles placed upon lawyers, a lawyer was thought to abide to moral standards. I will aim to tackle the debate by arguing that the SRA provides a framework that allows lawyers to be good people. Secondly, I will also be discussing a lawyer’s moral responsibility. and that whilst ‘The lawyer is conventionally seen as a professional devoted to his client’s interest and…required, to do some things for that client which he would not do for himself’ his moral responsibility must not violate the SRA Code of conduct. Finally, it is imperative to explore the ethical dilemmas solicitors face when attempting to make their clients’ interests their own.
This duty is acknowledged through the leading case of Bolton v Law Society where Lord Bingham states that lawyers should discharge their professional duties with ‘integrity, probity and complete trustworthiness’. Integrity is valued very highly in the field of law and it is also agreed that it is not an absurd or an improbable expectation from the public that all solicitors should be acting with the ‘utmost integrity at all times’. This, along with many other fundamental concepts that are also entrenched fully within the Solicitor Regulation Authority Principles and Codes of Conduct, is under question in regards to Rafa’s conduct towards Sara as well as her employer, Holywell Solicitors.
Many debates have arisen over which ethical theory is the most consistent with lawyer’s professional responsibilities. There are varying approaches from the narrow, liberal theory of the hired gun putting the clients autonomy as the fundamental responsibility of the lawyer, to a more relax position putting the lawyer as a councillor, to the other extreme of paternalism. This paper will address ……
As a professional attorney he also had a duty to always act logically
The profession of law has always been considered as a noble profession and not a business that works on the economic principle of demand and supply. It is not proposed that attorneys live on adoration and natural air however; law in essence is a service-oriented
The modern trust law has its origin in the use (from the Latin ab apus) which was developed as the response of equity to the shortcomings of the common law. A trust is very difficult if not impossible to define, but its essential elements are reasonably easily described and readily understood. There is no statutory definition of a trust . It has been the courts that, over the years, have developed the rules relating to the trust, so all one can do is provide a description of the trust, which reflects those rules and which enables people in a general way to know what is meant when talking about a trust. This essay will consider the case of Re Baden No.2 and explain how the trust principles evolved and develop relating to the certainty of objects. This essay will also analyse the different tests the Law Lords set out in relation to certainty of objects, for a discretionary trust. We will discuss the advantages and disadvantages of each approach from the Law Lords and suggest the best way forward for the trustees when deciding the proper approach to take in a discretionary trust.
