BRUNDAGE v. ESTATE OF CARAMBIO

A-56 September Term 2007

951 A.2d 947 (2008)

195 N.J. 575

Carole BRUNDAGE, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. ESTATE OF Carl V. CARAMBIO, Defendant-Respondent.

Supreme Court of New Jersey.

Decided July 15, 2008.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Patrick T. Collins, Livingston, argued the cause for appellant (Franzblau Dratch, attorneys).

David Jay, Florham Park, argued the cause for respondent (Greenberg Traurig, attorneys; Mr. Jay and Helen E. Kleiner, on the brief).

David H. Dugan, III, West Orange, argued the cause for amicus curiae New Jersey State Bar Association (Lynn Fontaine Newsome, President, attorney).

Justice HOENS delivered the opinion of the Court.

In this appeal, we are called upon to consider the intersection between zealous representation of one's client and an attorney's obligations of candor to a tribunal. More to the point, we are called upon to consider the scope of the authority of the courts to visit upon a client the burden of a penalty imposed because of his or her attorney's violation of that obligation of candor.
