Comment

[1] Rule 8.2(a) was adapted from Lawyer RPC 8.2(a) with no substantive changes and applies to LLLTs analogously.

[2] Lawyer Rule 8.2(b) pertains to lawyers who are candidates for judicial office. Judges in the judicial branch of the state of Washington must be lawyers. Accordingly, Rule 8.2(b) does not apply to LLLTs and is reserved.
