[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You're not really much of a lawyer then, are you? I mean, it's nice for you that you have principles and there are lines that you won't cross. But what you're talking about doing -- refusing to take a case because of your personal feelings -- goes against the oath every lawyer takes when they swear into a bar. Most states, including Arkansas, have this language in their oath: "I will not reject, from any consideration personal to myself, the cause of the impoverished, the defenseless, or the oppressed." For a normal person, not wanting to defend a rapist seems moral. But when you're actually a lawyer, it's the other way around, and refusing such a case because of your personal feelings is immoral because it's your sworn duty. [/quote] Do you understand that the language you quoted doesn't mean you're not allowed to reject cases?[/quote]
