  38. Outline • Legal Issues with Social Media • How to get information from social networking sites

  39. Legal Issues in Social Media • Ethics • Discovery • Evidence

  40. Ethical Issues with Social Media • Judges: bound by the code of judicial conduct • Attorneys: bound by the rules of professional responsibility • For both, the existing rules are applicable to the expanding technological world • No new for a bright-line rule with social media needed—or is there?

  41. Ethical issues for Judges • ABA Model Code of Judicial Conduct are sufficient to cover electronic communications and behavior • New York Judicial Ethics Committee, Opinion 08-176 (Jan. 29, 2009) found that judges may “join and use internet-based social networks, but should exercise an appropriate degree of discretion in how he/she uses the social network and should stay abreast of the features of any such service he/she uses as new developments may impact his/her duties under the Rules.”

  42. Ethical Issues for Judges • North Carolina Public Reprimand, Inquiry No. 08-234, B. Carlton Terry, Jr • Judge was reprimanded for using facebook to communicate about a case with father’s attorney, a “friend” on fb; he was not “friends” with the mother’s attorney; the Judge told the mother’s attorney about the communications; Judge googled the mother’s photography website on his own and did not disclose to either counsel of his independent research until after the hearing and after he put his order on the record; mother’s counsel filed a motion to vacate the order, for a new trial and to dq the judge;

  43. Ethical issues for Judges • The NC Commission found in No. 08-234 that the judge violated multiple codes of judicial conduct, including failure to preserve the integrity and independence of the judiciary, failure to respect and comply with the law, failure to act to promote public confidence in the integrity and impartiality of the judiciary, and engaged in ex parte communication with counsel and conducted independent ex parte online research about a party before the Court

  44. Ethical Issues for Judges • Florida: Judicial Ethics Advisory Committee published in Opinion No. 2009-20, 11/17/2009 that Judges may not add lawyers who may appear before them as “friends” on a social networking site of the judge or the attorney • South Carolina Judicial Department, Opinion No. 17-2009: Magistrate asked for advisory opinion whether “friending” his co-workers and law enforcement officers on facebook would give the “appearance of impropriety”; Commission says yes, Judge may “friend” them as long as they do not discuss anything related to the judge’s position as magistrate

  45. Ethical Issues for Judges • Tennessee: Judicial Ethics Committee issued Advisory Opinion 12-01 regarding use of social networking sites; yes, Judges may use them, but with caution • Referenced Maryland Judicial Ethics Committee No 2012-07 (may use social media—be cautious—nature of the relationship) • OK Judicial Ethics Advisory Opinion 2011-3 (judges can’t “friend” attorneys that regularly appear before them • MA Judicial Ethics Committee Opinion 2011-6 (judges must recuse themselves if an attorney “friend” appeared before them)

  46. Ethical Issues for Judges • TN also referenced California Judicial Ethics Committee Opinion 66—judges should consider: • The nature of the site, personal sites might create an appearance of favoritism • The number of persons “friended” by the judge (more gives the appearance that any one is less influential) • Judge’s procedure for “friending” or accepting requests • How regularly the “friend” attorney appears in the judge’s court • TN opinion: “judges must decide whether the benefit and utility of participating in social media justify the attendant risks

  47. Ethical Issues for Judges • American Bar Association, Formal Opinion 462, February 21, 2013: A judge may participate in electronic social networking…but must comply with the Code of Judicial Conduct… • Inter alia, talked about whether a judge should disclose that s/he is “friends” with counsel prior to or at the 1st appearance before the court • Context is significant • Warned against posting pictures, videos, “liking” pages, etc
