Called Diane she was panicking because she said she didn't want Kritina to violate her bail. On a side note, they should confiscate her phone and look at who she called that night.
Violating your bail is a crime in NY. She tossed a weapon as a mom. If it got back to the bar association--she could be in some hot water b/c they see her as a lawyer--not a mom.
The Lawyer’s Code of Professional Responsibility
The primary standard for measuring attorney misconduct is The Lawyer’s Code of
Professional Responsibility adopted by the New York State Bar Association. The Code is
comprised of three interrelated parts: Canons, defined as general concepts or axiomatic norms;
Ethical Considerations (ECs), defined as aspirational in character; and Disciplinary Rules (DRs),that are mandatory in character and state the minimum level of conduct below which no lawyer
can fall without being subject to disciplinary action. These DRs have been formally adopted by
each of the four Appellate Divisions as court rules (22 NYCRR part 1200).
While other codes and published standards may offer guidance (e.g., ABA Model Rules, ABA Standards Relating to the Defense Functions, etc.), they do not supersede the DRs that are binding upon all licensed attorneys who practice in New York.
I agree about the phone. TPTB clearly need consultants on this kind of stuff. I doubt it's in the budget though lol.
