Conflict of Interest - Domestic Relations -

Waiver of Rights Under Soldiers' and

Sailors' Civil Relief Act.

 

January 13, 1986

 

It is not improper for plaintiff's counsel in a divorce case with a

service person as defendant to prepare a "Waiver of Rights Under Soldiers'

and Sailors' Civil Relief Act" so long as it is tendered to the

defendant's legal officer in such a way that execution and return of the

waiver cannot be accomplished without the legal officer's advice and

guidance. [See LE Op. 644 and LE Op. 689]
