3:8-2. Joint Representation

3:8-2. Joint Representation

No attorney or law firm shall be permitted to enter an appearance for or represent
more than one defendant in a multi-defendant indictment without securing permission of
the court.

Such motion shall be made in the presence of the defendants sought to be
represented as early as practicable in the proceedings but no later than the arraignment
so as to avoid delay of the trial. For good cause shown, the court may allow the motion
to be brought at any time.

Note: Adopted July 16, 1979 to be effective September 10, 1979; amended July 13, 1994 to be
effective January 1, 1995; amended April 12, 2016 to be effective May 20, 2016.
