P1486 Standards for disqualification of an attorney for successive representations are less stringent than for simultaneous representations; an attorney should be disqualified from representing a second client, only if a former client demonstrates a substantial relationship between the subjects of the two matters involved; disqualification of a publicly funded, nonprofit, legal services organization from representing a child in a juvenile court matter relating to the mother's fitness, because the same organization had represented the mother in an unrelated previous case, was incorrect without such a showing.CitationCHARLISSE C v SHADONNA C (Successive Representation) 45 C4 145 [See: Flatt v Superior Court 9 C4 275, T/AT 2/95]
