This legal document, page 3 of 29 from a court filing, discusses a lawyer's ethical obligations under various New York Rules of Professional Conduct. It emphasizes that a lawyer's duty to take remedial action, such as disclosing fraudulent conduct to a court, is triggered only by "actual knowledge," a subjective standard. The document cites the 1988 Second Circuit case 'Doe v. Federal Grievance Committee' to support the argument that a mere belief of wrongdoing is insufficient to compel disclosure.
