| 170 | 22 | III.B. Assignments violate public policy | The Assignments also violate public policy as transparent devices to evade limitations and increase litigation (Sw. Bell Tel. Co., LAKXN, Wright v. Sydow). Their sole purpose was to circumvent the statute of limitations. Additionally, Kassab obtained the Assignments from his own clients in violation of Tex. Disciplinary R. Prof'l Conduct 1.08(h), which prohibits a lawyer from acquiring a proprietary interest in the cause of action or subject matter of litigation the lawyer is conducting for a client. |
