Judges' Ethical Duties to Ensure Fair Treatment of Indigent Parties

Abstract

In this Essay, I will argue that the American Bar Association (ABA) Model Code of Judicial Conduct (“the Model Code”) should more squarely address the challenges faced by low-income litigants. Amendments should make clear that judges have a duty to ensure the fair treatment of the indigent in the U.S. legal system.
