Maybe it's because the ACLU thinks it's out to save the world, whereas
I am out to serve my clients one at at time. I could lose my license
for taking a position contrary to my client's instructions, but some
posters here are applauding the ACLU for doing exactly that.

Please offer a quote of that.- Hide quoted text -


An attorney engages in professional misconduct when he disregards his
client's instructions, and this misconduct warrants disciplinary
action such as suspension of his license. In re Joseph L. Dombrowski,
71 Ill.2d 445, 376 N.E.2d 1007, 17 Ill.Dec. 678 (1978); In re Ivan H.
Tepper, 126 Ill.2d 109, 533 N.E.2d 838, 127 Ill.Dec. 756 (1988).

Why should this be a surprise to anyone?

I think you are begging the question. The issue is, provide us of an
example where ACLU files on behalf of an individual, challenging the death
penalty. Is the filing as a friend of the court? Is it filing after the
individual who is to be executed has retained them? (I doubt that?) Is it
filing independently? What are the details of the circumstances?

You cite an instance regarding a relationship between someone and his/her
attorney who has been retained. I doubt that describes the circumstances of
the death row inmate, and therefore your example does not apply.
