Is there anything in lawyer ethics that says you should continue to represent your client in the face of being personally harassed by mongoloid redditors who hate your client?
Yes. Unless it's somehow making it impossible to provide competent representation, RPC 1.16 applies.

Rule 1.16: Declining or Terminating Representation​


Client-Lawyer Relationship

(a) A lawyer shall inquire into and assess the facts and circumstances of each representation to determine whether the lawyer may accept or continue the representation. Except as stated in paragraph (c), a lawyer shall not represent a client or, where representation has commenced, shall withdraw from the representation of a client if:

(1) the representation will result in violation of the Rules of Professional Conduct or other law;

(2) the lawyer's physical or mental condition materially impairs the lawyer's ability to represent the client;

(3) the lawyer is discharged; or

(4) the client or prospective client seeks to use or persists in using the lawyer’s services to commit or further a crime or fraud, despite the lawyer’s discussion pursuant to Rules 1.2(d) and 1.4(a)(5) regarding the limitations on the lawyer assisting with the proposed conduct.


(b) Except as stated in paragraph (c), a lawyer may withdraw from representing a client if:

(1) withdrawal can be accomplished without material adverse effect on the interests of the client;

(2) the client persists in a course of action involving the lawyer's services that the lawyer reasonably believes is criminal or fraudulent;

(3) the client has used the lawyer's services to perpetrate a crime or fraud;

(4) the client insists upon taking action that the lawyer considers repugnant or with which the lawyer has a fundamental disagreement;

(5) the client fails substantially to fulfill an obligation to the lawyer regarding the lawyer's services and has been given reasonable warning that the lawyer will withdraw unless the obligation is fulfilled;

(6) the representation will result in an unreasonable financial burden on the lawyer or has been rendered unreasonably difficult by the client; or

(7) other good cause for withdrawal exists.

(c) A lawyer must comply with applicable law requiring notice to or permission of a tribunal when terminating a representation. When ordered to do so by a tribunal, a lawyer shall continue representation notwithstanding good cause for terminating the representation.

(d) Upon termination of representation, a lawyer shall take steps to the extent reasonably practicable to protect a client's interests, such as giving reasonable notice to the client, allowing time for employment of other counsel, surrendering papers and property to which the client is entitled and refunding any advance payment of fee or expense that has not been earned or incurred. The lawyer may retain papers relating to the client to the extent permitted by other law.

1.16(a)(2) would apply if harassment actually materially impaired the lawyer's ability to represent the client. (4) would apply to my wild speculation that Aaron was doing something skeevy. (5) would apply to the absence of Mr. Green. (6) would apply if Aaron being a dick in general made the representation unreasonably difficult.

The notice of withdrawal cites Gen. R. Prac. 105:

Rule 105.​

After a lawyer has appeared for a party in any action, withdrawal will be effective only if written notice of withdrawal is served on all parties who have appeared, or their lawyers if represented by counsel, and is filed with the court administrator if any other document in the action has been filed. The notice of withdrawal shall include the address, email address, if known, and phone number where the party can be served or notified of matters relating to the action.

Withdrawal of counsel does not create any right to continuance of any scheduled trial or hearing.

Note that despite the last line, Aaron almost certainly can file for another continuance based on the withdrawal of counsel. It is simply not a continuance as of right, and it would, I assume, be at the discretion of the judge.

In fact, conceivably, this is a vexatious litigant stunt of deliberately firing your lawyer to create grounds for a continuance, i.e. to keep the HRO in effect. That, again, is just wild speculation on my part, but it's a stunt I've seen way more than once. Stiffing Montgomery on the money end of things still seems the most likely situation, with pulling some dumb stunt a close second.
To me, Nick's response says that he knows what happened.
I'm sticking with the safer assumption that Nick is a crackhead retard and has no idea what's going on. He just knows it's good for him.

I hope that Aaron's new lawyer will agree to use "gay lover" defence, im gonna belive that aaron's laywer is homophobic and decided to quit once he realized how gay both parties are.
What new lawyer? Generally, if someone changes lawyer, you'd see a substitution of counsel rather than a straight up withdrawal listing only the client himself as a contact. This has all the look of a last minute pullout with no substitute representation, so Aaron is, so far as the court knows, pro se at this point.
The fool is utterly retarded. What's he responding to here? Me asking if Aaron has fucked up somehow, and @AnOminous asking what Aaron did to lose his lawyer.
What is this crackbrained retard even saying I was wrong about? Also light theme. What kind of faggot uses light theme?
 
Dear Court Administrator:

I am writing to formally notify the Court of my withdrawal as legal counsel for Mr. Aaron Imholte in the matter concerning the Harassment Restraining Order (HRO) hearing schedule for July 23, 2025. Due to unforeseen circumstances, I am unable to continue representing Mr. Imholte in this proceeding.

In light of my withdrawal, I respectfully request that the Court consider granting a continuance should Mr. Imholte seek one. This would ensure that he has adequate time to secure new representation and prepare his case, thereby preventing any potential prejudice or disadvantage.

I have informed Mr. Imholte of my withdrawal and advised him of the importance of promptly obtaining new legal counsel. I am committed to cooperating fully with any new attorney he may retain to facilitate a smooth transition.

Thank you for your attention to this matter. Please do not hesitate to contact me should you require any further information or clarification.
 
Lol another continuance would make this a bit funnier

"Unforseen circumstances" did Aaron's lawyer have a death in the family? Wouldn't he specify if he left because of Aaron?
This is really vague, it could be a spectrum of things.

It could be something as simple as a personal emergency or scheduling issue, but as Montgomery pushed the date back, a clash would be unlikely.
I suspect a breakdown in relations or ethical problems. Its unlikely the entire PEG firm has some kind of conflict of interest with both Rekieta and Melton. Unfortunately, Rekieta could be right with his concept of perjury.

Rekieta is a retard who can be easily defeated by average IQ small-town prosecutors. However, the playing field is significantly evened when both parties are on the lower end of the Bell Curve.
 
From /r/steeltoeboringshow -
This looks really bad, like client misconduct made representation impossible. You may note that if the court has a problem with him withdrawing, he is essentially inviting the judge to reach out to him and ask for information ex parte. Why would he do that?

Possibly because Aaron pulled some stunt that is protected from disclosure under attorney/client privilege but requires that he withdraw.

Another strong implication is he knows Aaron does not have substitute counsel. A reputedly competent lawyer like this is generally not going to ditch a client at the eve of a determinative hearing without very good cause.
 
"Aaron ran out of money"

Unless he's finally allergic to large five figure debt, I don't find this plausible. He's a homeowner and is on the right side of the income distribution in rural MN.

I his lawyer's mom is dying or some other life event cucked Aaron. If you're a defense attorney I'd think you'd put up with a lot of their bullshit and clients would have to go out of their way (admittedly Aaron is doing a lot of that) to make their case not worth a token defense for counsel.
 
:story: :story: :story:


WTF happened, you ask?

Aaron Imholte happened.

Hilarity ensued.
I said it earlier in the month (the 3rd), and I hinted at a couple of times before then:

Aaron ain't gonna be the slayer of Rekieta.
and
Nick is way worse than Aaron, but Aaron is too much of a dope to make much headway against Nick. He now hands Nick as many Ws as he does Ls. It's a clash of the retards with those two.

I still disagree with you that Aaron is anywhere near as bad as Nick, but I generally agree with you that putting much faith in him is foolish and just asking for disappointment.

What we really need is for Nick to get a more competent nemesis.

Nick's still mad we weren't cool with him ruining his relationship with his wife and giving his kid cocaine.

(I still say that if Aaron treated this seriously and actually filed police reports instead of what he did he woulda won)

"I haven't filed anything [yet]"

At this point, Aaron's incompetent enough to somehow be sentenced to become Nick's permanent sex slave.
