Neuner Rules
On DA Practice
- . i " i; '
Attorney General George Neu
ner ruled Tuesday that district
attorneys may not represent the
plaintiff In divorce proceedings;
pointing ; out that this conflicts
with the district attorney's public
duty.
Neuner said that the law makes
a district attorney a representative
of the defendant in a divorce case,
so to represent the plaintiff means
he is representing both -aides.
He also said that the practice
of representing thai plaintiff also
fails to maintain the respect doe
courts of justice and fails to main
tain 'inviolate the confidence of
both adversaries..
He further ruled that deputy
district attorneys also should not
represent the plaintiff la divorce
proceedings. The-opinion was re
quested by the state bar associa
tion. ' it; , - "" .4. -"

New Certificate
: District Attorney Thomas B.
Handley of Multnomah county
can finally prove he is a member
of the bar.; j . --..;,J ,
v Handley told the supreme court
that he was admitted to practice
law in 1907 but that he had lost
his certificate and all other rec
ords to sustain his claim. t
Chief Justice Harry H. Belt
sent Handley a new certificate,
writing Handley that he would
give him the benefit of the doubt
because "You have been assum
ing to act as a lawyer - - and X
might say a good one - - during
all of these years."
Chief Justice Belt suggested
that Handley should nail the cer
tificate on the wall "in such a
manner that it will become part
of the freehold."
