TWENTY-FIRST CENTURY RAIL CORPORATION, ET AL. V.

THE NEW JERSEY TRANSIT CORPORATION, ET AL.

A-0975-10T3

In this interlocutory appeal we address in a plenary and de

novo fashion the question of attorney disqualification in the

context of successive representation under Rule of Professional

Conduct 1.9. In so doing, we affirm the denial of the motion

for disqualification because the side-switching law firm was not

shown to be engaged in a present representation that is

substantially related to its former representation, within the

principles of City of Atlantic City v. Trupos, 201 N.J. 447
