Conflict Of Interest State
C179
Definition
Extracted from facts primary
A condition in which a professional's history of retention by a party and by a party adverse to it places the professional's loyalties in potential tension, so the propriety of the professional's judgment can be called into question. In this case, Engineer A served ABC Manufacturing in patent litigation matters and also served a plaintiff in product liability litigation against ABC Manufacturing, and opposing counsel implies that providing those services on both sides was improper.
Inherited from ConflictOfInterestState · note
A condition in which an agent holds competing interests or loyalties, or competing role-derived duties, that cannot all be fully served and that bias or constrain the exercise of professional judgment. As a content kind it is the standing tension among interests, covering both conflict of interest and competing duties. Its deontic relevance is that it renders the affected obligations defeasible against one another and grounds the competesWith, prevailsOver, and defeasibleUnder edge family.
