IN RE PROF'L ETHICS OPINION 705

926 A.2d 839 (2007)

192 N.J. 46

In re ADVISORY COMMITTEE ON PROFESSIONAL ETHICS OPINION 705.

Supreme Court of New Jersey.

Decided July 19, 2007.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Jo Astrid Glading, Acting Public Advocate, argued the cause for appellant, Department of the Public Advocate.

R. Brian McLaughlin, argued the cause for respondent, Advisory Committee on Professional Ethics (Elaine D. Dietrich, Trenton, Counsel to the Administrative Director of the Courts, attorney).

John M. Van Dalen, argued the cause for respondent, pro se.

PER CURIAM.

In this appeal, we must determine whether a provision of the New Jersey Conflicts of Interest Law (Act), N.J.S.A. 52:13D-12 to -27, must yield to a conflicting Rule of Professional Conduct (RPC). Specifically, the question presented is whether attorneys formerly employed by the State are subject to N.J.S.A. 52:13D-17 when the Act's post-employment restrictions are more stringent than the directives of RPC 1.11(c).
