In what circumstances have counsel been found to have concealed material facts to obtain judicial action?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Stanley, B252979 (Cal. App. 2016):

silence so broadly. In each case cited to us, counsel "engaged in an affirmative presentation of facts to obtain judicial action and concealed material facts of which he knew the [tribunal] was not otherwise aware. Under these circumstances, the making of affirmative representations itself created the duty to also disclose other material facts that counsel knew were unknown to [the court]." (Crayton v. Superior Court, supra, 165 Cal.App.3d at p. 451.)
