ONE WRONG MOVE

- but for real just say you thought he said to do research based on Mississippi law, and they are always on the opposite side.

Has the partner caught on yet? If the letter has gone out with the error, I would certainly not raise the issue at this point. Good chance opposing counsel either never bothers to look up the cite, quickly looks it up but doesn't notice your mistake, or notices it and has a good chuckle but doesn't really make anything of it.

The issue I researched has a name that applies to multiple issues. I didn't realize it, and used caselaw from a strand of law that is irrelevant to the issue I researched, albeit with the same name.

But if you were literally researching the wrong legal issue, how did you provide the partner with something that he could use? If I ask you to go find me a hammer and you come back with a carrot, it's fairly clear that we've had a failure to communicate. I don't just start whacking away at a nail with a vegetable.

Did you provide him with some one-off quote or something? Did he just want a case to support an assertion of law that he had already written?

if you haven't already done so, you should go an research and see if you can find a similar quote applicable to the proper version of the principle in question. Then at least you can feel like the error was just a bad cite rather than a false legal assertion.

Fuck really? I think there's a chance no one will find out, and when they do I can play it off as an honest mistake. Which route is preferable?

If you admit your mistake, 100% chance partner will be pissed off at you. You would also be admitting that you should have realized the error at the time.

If you say nothing, there's a good chance that one of the following happens:

1) no one notices the error, possibly because the whole thing blows over, or because this ends up not being a determining factor

2) partner realizes error but thinks "oh well, anyone could have made that mistake, I wouldn't have caught that"

3) opposing counsel presents counterargument in a way that doesn't make it obvious that you were flat out wrong

In a brief, i might agree. There's a duty to the court not to present bullshit law. In a letter to opposing counsel? No way. No upside. Only downside.

whenever I have admitted to a failure, it has always turned out bad for me. Whenever it was a mistake that I stood behind, it was never that bad. Ultimately, it depends on your partner. Can you make any plausible argument that your position is the right one? Tell him: "If the law is on your side, pound the law. If the facts are on your side, then pound the facts. If neither the law nor the facts are on your side, then pound the table."

UPDATE: I lucked out. Opposing counsel responded. He didn't notice my fuck up, and we're moving on to other issues. God I hate when things like this happen. FMA. But I am elated that this turned out alright

Oh man it was 180. I got an email from the partner that said: "I just received this from opposing counsel. Please read and give me your thoughts." I got nervous as fukkk: time slowed down, I puckered my butthold, and sweat began to bead on my forehead. I was so nervous I had to read the letter a few times before I understood that I wasnt fucked. Opposing counsel mentioned the bad case we cited in a paragraph, and when I saw it I thought I was fucked, but he clearly didn't take the time to read the case, bc he attacked it on some other minor point. YNY. All in all, it turned out to be a 180 day. Feels good to win one for once

Protip: most lawyers are incompetent. Don't operate like they are, but it helps to remember that when you drop the ball.
