Got it, and the discussion to Rule 1.10 specifically says that non-USG attorneys need to answer to their state Bars on imputed disqualification. So the drafters of the JAG rule certainly knew that it would diverge from many state rules.

Look at Navy Rule 1.10. There's a different rule for USG attorneys and non-USG attorneys. As I read the rule, he has to be a USG attorney to get out from under a state imputed disqualification rule. (That's why that language is in the brief saying he'd become a USG attorney for purposes of the Navy Rules if he were to be recalled to active duty.) > > Semper Fi, > DHS > > Dwight H.

But if he is appearing at a court-martial, then under comment 3 to Rule 8.05 wouldn't the professional responsibility rules which cover the court-martial jurisdiction take precedence? And wouldn't those be the JAG rules, whether he was in uniform or not?

The odds are that CAAF will issue a final ruling on this way before then. (And the odds are that that final ruling will be a denial.) But if CAAF were to set the case for oral argument or otherwise take more than two months to decide this, we could ask for a stay then and have a far better chance of getting one. > > > > Semper Fi, > > DHS > > > > Dwight H.
