In the Matter of Edward J. Dolan, an Attorney at Law

Summary

The New Jersey Supreme Court affirmed a public reprimand against attorney Edward J. Dolan for engaging in dual representation that violated disciplinary rules, emphasizing that such representation by a municipal attorney is impermissible and that multiple representation requires full, timely, and informed consent. Justice Pashman filed a partial concurrence/dissent arguing for a per se prohibition of dual representation.
