Nancy J. Moore, Conflicts of Interest in the Simultaneous
Representation of Multiple Clients: A Proposed Solution to the
Current Confusion and Controversy 61 TEXAS L. REV. 211
(1982).
Abstract:
In this article, Professor Moore argues for her interpretation
of proposed Model Rules of Professional Responsibility governing
the representation of multiple clients. Moore points out the
inconsistent understandings that exist regarding the proposed
rules. She concludes that the proposed rule should be adopted
with the qualification that certain situations, such as the
representation of co-defendants in a criminal cases, render the
representation of multiple clients impermissible regardless of
how the rule technically applies to a situation.
