What was Smith’s defense to the charge that he violated Colorado’s version of ABA Model Rule 5.3? What was the court’s response?
What will be an ideal response?
Smith asserted that Ross’s actions were an “intervening cause,” and were it not for them, he
would not have neglected Reynolds’ case. This held no water with the court, which pointed
out that a simple review of the client file at any point would have revealed the problems in
the Reynolds matter. The court chastised Smith for relying on Ross to handle matters without providing any meaningful supervision of her activities.
