matter o f professional etiquette among solicitors
themselves, and which the Council believe has been
customary for years. Apart from professional
etiquette, the question whether a solicitor’s under
taking is legally binding upon him depends upon
the facts o f the particular case, and the application
thereto of the appropriate legal rules.
(5)
The wilful breach by a solicitor o f a written
professional undertaking would, in the opinion o f
the Council, be sufficient ground for the institution
o f proceedings before the Statutory Committee on
foot thereof.
The foregoing is published for the information
o f members, and in order to prevent misunder
standings. It seems to the Council to be quite
obvious that when a solicitor accepts an undertaking
from another solicitor he does so in the faith of
that solicitor’s professional integrity, and that an
undertaking which only binds another solicitor’s
client, about whom he may know nothing, would
in many cases be valueless.
