DOCTRINE
A lawyer should use his best efforts to restrain and
to prevent his clients from doing those things which
the lawyer himself ought not to do, particularly with
reference to their conduct towards courts, judicial
officers, jurors, witnesses and suitors. If a client
persists in such wrongdoing the lawyer should
terminate their relation.
A lawyer should be punctual. Inexcusable absence
from, or repeated tardiness in, attending a pre-trial
or hearing may not only subject the lawyer to
disciplinary action, but may also prejudice his client
who, as a consequence thereof, may be non-suited,
declared in default or adjudged liable ex parte, as
the case may be.
A lawyer shall abstain from scandalous, offensive or
menancing language or behavior before the courts.
The language of a lawyer, both oral and written,
must be respectful and restrained in keeping with
the dignity of the legal profession and with his
behavioral attitude toward his brethren in the
profession. The use of abusive language by counsel
against the opposing counsel constitutes at the same
time a disrespect to the dignity of the court of
justice. The use of impassioned language in
pleadings, more often than not, creates more heat
than light.
The duty to observe and maintain respect is not a
one-way duty from a lawyer to a judge. A judge
should be courteous to lawyer to merit respect. He
should be civil, for it is unbecoming of a judge to
utter intemperate language during the hearing of a
case.
A lawyer shall not attribute to a judge improper
motives. He should not make hasty accusation
against the judge, before whom he pleads his case,
without any cogent and valid ground extant in the
record. His arguments, written or oral, should be
gracious to both the court and opposing counsel.
A lawyer shall submit grievances to proper
authorities. The performance of the duty demands
that the lawyer refrain from filing, or be not a party
to the bringing of, unfounded charges against
judges. A lawyer may prefer charges against a judge
only after proper circumspection and without the
