Attorney Anter is a criminal defense lawyer. In the case of Rio, Anter failed to adequately prepare for the case, barely spoke to his client until the trial got under way and failed to properly cross-examine prosecution witnesses. According to the judge who heard the case, Anter should not have put Rio on the witness stand because Rio admitted being a member of a gang which probably helped the

jury decide that he was guilty of being involved in a drive-by shooting. The judge set aside the jury's verdict. Anter: A) may be guilty of negligence depending upon the standard of competence in his community. B) is guilty of negligence for failure to represent Rio competently if his action/inaction fell below the standard of care of the reasonable lawyer under the circumstances. C) is not guilty of negligence because the judge set aside the jury's verdict. D) is guilty of negligence unless he refunds the money he took from the client's family.
