Clearly billybarrROYCOHN is defective. He is what you would find in an outlet mall. Chipped, discolored, maybe even missing some parts. All that is available to the Dondonjohn because first-class lawyers want no part of him.
So any lawyers out there who sanction LYING to protect a client? Am I so naive to believe that lawyers are NOT SUPPOSED TO DO CRIMINAL THINGS to protect criminals? The billybarrROYCOHN has put a very bad light on lawyering. Anyone gonna defend this jerkyturkey?
That depends on what you define as a lie.
They are not allowed to tell untruths ... but they are allowed (in many instances) to not tell the truth, or to tell partial truths.
That's why lawyers don't take the witness stand, and lawyer-client communications are confidential.
