  • ABA Model Rule 8.4(G) Would Violate an Attorney’S Free Speech, Free Association, and Free Exercise Rights Under the First Amendment to the U.S
    To: Jodi Nafzger From: Steve Smith Re: Idaho State Bar Professionalism and Ethics Section Subcommittee on the Proposed Idaho Rules of Professional Conduct, Rule 8.4(g) Date: May 26, 2017 Thank you, and thanks to Brad Andrews, for the invitation to provide a dissenting opinion about the proposed Rule 8.4(g) (the “subsection”) that was approved on May 8, 2017 for discussion at the CLE on June 6, 2017. Also, I wanted to express my appreciation to all the subcommittee members for all of the time, energy and good discussion invested by them. The reasons that the rule should not be amended include the following: 1. The proposed subsection is a “solution” in search of a problem. Albert Einstein, who was a pretty good problem solver, was quoted as saying, “The framing of a problem is often more essential than its solution.” I don’t recall any evidence being presented in the Subcommittee’s deliberations that demonstrated an actual need in Idaho for the subsection, especially in light of the fact that provisions already exist in the rules to address the concerns that were raised. 2. The amendment would undermine the U. S. Constitution and threaten our liberties. Thomas Jefferson wrote the following to James Madison in 1787: "A bill of rights is what the people are entitled to against every government on earth, general or particular; and what no just government should refuse…." Abraham Lincoln echoed that belief when he said, “Don’t interfere with anything in the Constitution. That must be maintained for it is the only safeguard of our liberties.” Attached is an analysis of the Rule provided by a constitutional lawyer who has reviewed the ABA Model Rule and various state rules.

Sackmary**s INTRODUCTION Thomas Jefferson once stated that "[t]o compel a man to furnish contributions of money for the propagation of opinions which he disbelieves, is sinful and tyrannical."' These words ring just as true today. When the State compels individuals to support organizations which are contrary to their political or ideological views, it violates their constitutional rights.2 Thus, due to the element of compulsion, mandatory Interest on Lawyers Trust Accounts programs (IOLTA) -- which require attorneys to use their clients' money to support various organizations 3 -- directly violate * In Massachusetts, the program is called IOLTA, Interest on Lawyers' Trust Accounts. Although other jurisdictions refer to this program as IOLA (Interest on Lawyers' Accounts) or IOTA (Interest on Trust Accounts), this Comment will use the Massachusetts terminology throughout.
