ABA-353
|
| If a lawyer learns before a proceeding's end that the client has provided testimony the lawyer knows to be false, the lawyer must disclosure the perjury to the tribunal. If the lawyer learns that the client intends to testify falsely, the lawyer must advise the client of the consequences. If the lawyer reasonably believes the client has abandoned such criminal intent, the lawyer may examine the client normally. If the lawyer's warnings have not dissuaded the client, the lawyer must limit the examination to truthful matters, not permit the client to testify or (as a last resort) disclose the perjury to the tribunal. |
