The district court agreed that Mr. Higgins had breached his fiduciary duty to Mr. Moore and disqualified Beatie & Osborn for violating California Rule of Professional Conduct 1-120 by inducing Mr. Higgins’s breach of duty to Mr. Moore. Rule 1-120 prohibits attorneys from knowingly assisting in, soliciting or inducing violations of the Rules of Professional Conduct. The district court also disqualified Bramson Plutzik, finding that it was sufficiently involved in the litigation that it was presumptively aware of Mr. Moore’s confidences. The Georgia law firm was allowed to remain in the case.
