To Screen or Not to Screen?

ADVERTISEMENTS

The ABA's House of Delegates will soon be reconsidering an amendment to Rule 1.10 that would permit screening in some matters involving laterally hired attorneys. In August 2008, the House voted to postpone consideration of a similar proposal by a single vote. Should it be adopted this time? For an argument against screening, see Monroe Freedman's comments here.  For the Report in favor of screening, look here.  The BNA has run a recent story about the upcoming vote here (password required).  What do you think?
