Original Date Announced
March 22, 2025President Trump issued a memorandum instructing the Attorney General and the Secretary of Homeland Security to enforce attorney conduct rules, with an emphasis on Rule 11 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and Rule 3.1 of the Model Rules of Professional Conduct. These regulations prohibit unethical practices, including the filing of frivolous lawsuits. The directive calls for sanctions in such cases, particularly those impacting national security, public safety, or elections, and requires disciplinary measures against attorneys who violate these standards. It also mandates a review of past legal actions for potential misconduct and accuses the immigration bar and law firms' pro bono legal practices of coaching asylum applicants to mislead immigration authorities and courts into granting unwarranted relief harming national security.
