Paralegal

Answer: A - A lawyer reschedules of a hearing because it conflicts with a pre-planned vacation. “[I]t is not proper for a lawyer to routinely fail to expedite litigation solely for the convenience of the advocates. Nor will a failure to expedite be reasonable if done for the purpose of frustrating an opposing party’s attempt to obtain rightful redress or repose. . . . . Realizing financial gain or other benefit from otherwise improper delay in litigation is not a legitimate interest of the client.” Model Rule 3.2, comment 1. Answer A is the best choice because a one-time scheduling conflict is not a failure to expedite litigation, and because Answers B, C, and D are all examples of failure to expedite in the comment to Rule 3.2.
