: Legal Ethics ForumWays that lawyers should or shouldn't criticize judges
I'm not weighing in on the president's SOTU address comments about Citizens United or about Justice Alito's response (except to say that I'm glad Alito didn't "go Nino" on the president while cameras were rolling).
But that incident brought to mind a rule, or comment, or norm that says that because judges have limited means to defend themselves through public media, lawyers should criticize judges only in certain ways. Does that ring a bell with anyone? I've heard it quoted several times but can't put my finger on it.
