Speakers
Description
The ethical standards imposed upon administrative hearing officials (Executive Branch judges) may be comparable to those that govern Judicial Branch judges, depending on the jurisdiction. This session will deal with two of the most challenging aspects of ethical standards for administrative adjudicators—avoiding impermissible ex parte communication and maintaining neutrality despite tacit or explicit agency pressure. Review of the ABA’s Model Code of Judicial Conduct is included.
