Conflicts of Interests.

 

April 4, 1979

 

Where a law firm has represented corporation "X" for several years, and

has represented corporation "Y" on several occasions and a firm member is

the registered agent for "Y," it is not improper for the firm to represent "

X" as defense counsel against a mechanic's lien filed by "Y" so long as

there is full disclosure and consent of all of the parties. [See II: DR:

5-105(C).]
