Rule 35. Attorney Agreements
Currentness
A. Verbal agreements between attorneys are valid and enforceable in court. However, in the event a dispute arises between the parties to the agreement as to specific aspects of it, the Court may recognize the undisputed portions or none of it, in the exercise of sound discretion and as the furtherance of justice may require.
B. The Court recommends that agreements between attorneys involving matters of substance be reduced to writing and subscribed by those agreeing or the text of the agreement may be directed to the court reporter in open court while counsel are present.
