What Do You Do If Your Client Intends to Lie Under Oath?
An important strategic decision for any criminal defense attorney and their client during any trial is whether the client will testify. Based on the constitutional protections afforded criminal defendants, no defendant in a criminal case can be compelled to give testimony against him or herself. However, some criminal defendants may want to provide testimony in support of their defense.
Attorneys and their non-attorney staff members must abide by the Rules of Professional Conduct adopted by their state. Most states have based their adopted rules on the American Bar Association’s Model Rules of Professional Conduct. Read ABA Model Rule 3.3 and its comment.
Imagine that you are a criminal defense attorney. While you are preparing your client to testify, you learn that your client intends to lie under oath. What steps do you have to take next? What do you think about this rule?

As a criminal defense attorney, learning that a client intends to lie under oath creates a serious ethical quandary. According to ABA Model Rule 3.3 (n.d.), an attorney has a responsibility of candor to the tribunal, which implies that they cannot intentionally allow misleading evidence or testimony to be offered in court. If I learn that my client intends to lie on the stand, my first action would be to counsel him against perjury, stressing the legal and ethical ramifications. It is vital to emphasize that lying under oath may result in additional criminal charges, weaken credibility, and jeopardize their defense. If the client insists on perjury, I am expected to take additional steps to prevent false testimony, including potentially resigning from representation if needed. However, per Hall (2022), withdrawal is not always granted because of the prejudice of the client, both in the eyes of the jury and because it leaves the client without counsel at a critical time in trial (p. 500).
I believe Rule 3.3 is crucial to the integrity of the judicial process. While a defense attorney’s primary obligation is to defend their client, this advocacy must adhere to the law. Allowing misleading testimony jeopardizes the fairness of the trial while also undermining public trust in the legal system. Although it may appear that this regulation puts attorneys in difficult situations, it assures that justice is pursued in accordance with ethical guidelines.

Lawyers must defend their clients zealously, but allowing the client or the witness to lie in trial will be like assisting one of his clients in committing a crime. Lying at trial is known as perjury and is punishable by the law. Therefore, if the attorney knows that his client, or a witness for his client, is thinking about lying in court, he needs to consider the ABA Ethical Model Rule 3.3, inform his client of the consequences of lying, and explain to the client how lying will only hurt his/her case as well as informing the tribunal of the untruthful information. Most lawyers and judges know when a client is lying, and once they catch a client or witness lying, their testimony will be questionable, potentially hurting the outcome of the client’s case. Also, suppose the attorney knows the client is lying, and the truth emerges. In that case, that attorney’s reputation, character, and professionalism will be at risk, as well as his relationship with his clients and his credibility in court, among other things.
The ABA Model Rules protect the client and the attorney and ensure that lawyers follow the rules of conduct to ethically and rightfully defend their clients. Rule 3.3 of the ABA Model Rule is excellent because it establishes the steps an attorney needs to take if he suspects that one of his clients or witnesses is about to commit the crime of perjury.

Drones and the Fourth Amendment
The Fourth Amendment states, “The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.” Courts have established exceptions to the warrant requirement of the Fourth Amendment. In addition, courts have had to consider technological advancements and determine the Fourth Amendment implications.
The U.S. Supreme Court has considered searches and seizures in cars, use of airplanes to conduct surveillance, and the use of specially trained dogs to “sniff” out drugs. One issue that has not yet been decided by the United States Supreme Court, but is ripe for review, is the police use of drones.
Read this law review article:

If you were a United States Supreme Court justice, would you require law enforcement officers to seek a warrant before using a drone to conduct surveillance? Please explain.

Rose
Hello Class,
This is a great topic because this is a very talked about topic in my household. My husband is a retired veteran and is a big constitutional buff and we discuss this topic all the time. I personally would not feel comfortable being surveyed by a drone, I would prefer the old way and having you take me to court or law enforcement personally issuing a warrant at my front door. I think having drones for law enforcement use period is wrong, but if it is going to be done I would prefer a warrant to be issued first before the police just conduct their drone surveillance on their own. So for example, I went down to Virginia to my brother’s house and they have drones that provide surveillance for certain roads and if you are speeding you will not get pulled over, that drone takes surveillance and sends you a ticket via mail. After hearing about that from my brother I felt very uncomfortable and I do not know if that should be legal because it probably is saving police officers time so they can patrol else where, but at the same time I feel that I am being spied on. If I were a United States Supreme Court justice, I would want to require law enforcement officers to retrieve a warrant before using a drone to conduct surveillance because in every other case to be able to wire tab you would need a warrant right? So then I would agree that drone surveillance would require a warrant before taking that next step.

Assignment 3 (1/2 Page) Ask a question to Kathia , cite one reference , 150 word min
Because of the ever-changing technology, conducting surveillance has been made easier for law enforcement, but also for the normal people who do unlawful things like stalking. Would I require law enforcement officers to seek a warrant before using a drone to conduct surveillance? The simple answer is yes, but why? The reasons would include the following: reasonable expectation of privacy, technological impact, existing precedents, prevention of overreach, and balance of interests.
The Fourth Amendment protects areas where individuals have a reasonable expectation of privacy. Drones can intrude on that expectation because they can fly over private spaces like homes and backyards. The technological impact of drones is that they are equipped with advanced technology, like high-definition cameras, thermal imaging, and other surveillance tools that can provide law enforcement with intrusive methods of gathering information. Capabilities that extend the human eye and make warrantless surveillance even more of a problem. Drones can be considered government overreach because how drones can enable persistent, widespread surveillance, and having a warrant ensures that law enforcement uses the drones only when there is probable cause. Lastly, the warrant can have courts ensure that drones are justified and used properly. I wanted to add that in the 5-4 decision in Kyllo v. United States, the Court stated that in cases of searches of the interior of homes “there is a ready criterion. . . of [a] minimal expectation of privacy that exists, and that is acknowledged to be reasonable;” thus, “[when] the Government uses a [thermal-imaging] device that is not in the general public use, to explore details of the home that would previously have been unknowable without physical intrusion, the surveillance is a ‘search’. . . .” In other words, when thermal imaging is used in a search and seizure in a home without a warrant, it becomes only a search. The evidence found can’t be used against the defendant.
