Washington Bar Association
Posted: Thu Aug 20, 2009 2:57 am
I have been looking up some of the laws of Washington State and found lawyers are under the ethics rules of the Washington Bar Association.
A lawyer is prohibited from counseling or assisting a client in conduct that the lawyer knows is criminal or fraudulent. A third party also has the right to object to the Washington Bar Association for violating the code of ethics if they can furnish evidence.
JZ Knight has perjured herself in court regarding the Jesus tapes and she is marketing without disclosing that her offer to the public is a religion. Furthermore if you live in a foreign country where religion is not dominating the mindset of the public people tend to disregard a study by a religious scholar. In this country it would be regarded as a professional interest within the confines of a religious community. It would not be regarded as relevant to law. Under these conditions it is not disclosed that RSE is a religion.
Under section 6 a lawyer has to give a certain amount of pro bono legal work every year for poor clients. It was unknown to me and is probably unknown to many others.
A lot of people have had breakages in the arena. RSE has never had a conscience about what it does. If some people get together perhaps they could contact the Washington Bar Association and find out in this situation what can be done to help the people. It requires investigation by a few people so a pool of resources is available and people can know their legal rights and what avenues are available. It should be investigated what rights an out of state person has and what rights a foreigner has when they attend a Washington corporation that is fraudulently presenting itself in the market.
People should be aware that one person's opinion in an organization may not necessarily be correct and on another day there may be someone far better to help with the problem. Never take no for an answer. Furthermore if the problem is explained then often resources appear that are unexpected.

This is taken from title 4:
Crime or Fraud by Client
[3] Under Rule 1.2(d), a lawyer is prohibited
from counseling or assisting a client in conduct that
the lawyer knows is criminal or fraudulent. Paragraph
(b) states a specific application of the principle set
forth in Rule 1.2(d) and addresses the situation where
a client's crime or fraud takes the form of a lie or
misrepresentation. Ordinarily, a lawyer can avoid
assisting a client's crime or fraud by withdrawing
from the representation. Sometimes it may be
necessary for the lawyer to give notice of the fact of
withdrawal and to disaffirm an opinion, document,
affirmation or the like. In extreme cases, substantive
law may require a lawyer to disclose information
relating to the representation to avoid being deemed
to have assisted the client's crime or fraud. If the
lawyer can avoid assisting a client's crime or fraud
only by disclosing this information, then under
paragraph (b) the lawyer is required to do so, unless
the disclosure is prohibited by Rule 1.6.
