Original Note:
False The Cab Rank Rule obliges barristers to accept any work within their speciality. They cannot discriminate against particular clients even if they disagree with the client’s views or actions. The decision of guilt v. innocence is left to a judge/ jury, not the barrister. https://www.barcouncil.org.uk/resource/cab-rank-rule-statement-of-the-four-bars.html
