Former Government Attorney - Private Practice.

 

May 15, 1980

 

A former county attorney ethically may represent a party in his attempt

to secure a franchise for a public service from the county, so long as the

attorney did not have any "substantial responsibility" in the franchise

matter while serving as county attorney. [See II: DR:9-101(B) and EC:9-

3.]
