McMunigalCase Western Reserve University School of Law 2011 ABA Criminal Justice, Summer 2011 Washington University in St. Louis Legal Studies Research Paper No. 12-05-13 Abstract: This column questions the practices of labeling attorney copying, even without acknowledgement, as plagiarism, and treating it as a per se ethics violation.
