Chapter 31 — Part III: The Decalogue — The Eighth Commandment
Section 33. Lawyers And Plaintiffs Must Be Guided By Love Of Justice — Attorneys and counsel, plaintiffs and prosecutors, remain still to be treated of. The two former should not refuse to contribute their services and legal assistance, when the necessities of others call for their aid. They should deal generously with the poor. They should not defend an unjust cause, prolong lawsuits by trickery, nor encourage them for the sake of gain. As to remuneration for their services and labours, let them be guided by the principles of justice and of equity.
