Misleading Conduct In Court
Summary
In Arizona, attorneys must be honest with the court, but suing them for misleading information is complex due to professional immunity. Misleading conduct can be addressed by gathering evidence, filing a bar complaint, and focusing on proving the opposing partys falsehoods in court. If opposing counsel submits improperly redacted documents, it may be considered misleading. Consider raising the issue with the court and consulting a family law attorney for tailored advice.Full Conversation
