Duty of Candor to the Court_ Epic Games and “One Bite” at the Apple
About the Program

Lawyers have a duty to be zealous advocates for their clients. But when it comes to standing up to judges and their rulings, where is the line? The recent case of Epic Games v. Apple demonstrates the importance of obeying judicial orders, and the potential ramifications of noncompliance. Using the Epic Games case as an illustration, this program will explore the ethical rules that govern a lawyer’s interaction with judges both in and out of the courtroom. It will also include an analysis of not only what lawyers can say to judges in the courtroom, but what they can say about them in the court of public opinion.

In this webinar, participants will learn:

  • The expansive boundaries of the duty of candor to the court
  • How the duty of candor generally applies in and out of the courtroom
  • Sanctions for violating the duty of candor to the court
  • What a lawyer can say about Judges they appear before
  • Where free speech meets rules of legal ethics and civil liability
