37 C.F.R. 10.87, Communicating with one of adverse interest. (BitLaw)
37 CFR 10.87
Communicating with one of adverse interest. This document contains one section of Chapter 37 of the Code of Federal Regulations. This page was last updated in November, 2005. You may return to the main 37 CFR Index, or to the index for one of the follow parts:
part 1 (patents); part 2 (trademarks); part 3 (assignments); part 10 (representation); or part 200+ (copyrights). Previous Section (§10.86) | Next Section (§10.88)
(a) Communicate or cause another to communicate on the subject of the representation with a party the practitioner knows to be represented by another practitioner in that matter unless the practitioner has the prior consent of the other practitioner representing such other party or is authorized by law to do so. It is not improper, however, for a practitioner to encourage a client to meet with an opposing party for settlement discussions.
(b) Give advice to a person who is not represented by a practitioner other than the advice to secure counsel, if the interests of such person are or have a reasonable possibility of being in conflict with the interests of the practitioner's client.
