You are the lawyer for a wealthy, now recently-deceased billionaire who has left his entire fortune to his dog. Even though he has no other family, you see this as a terrible waste of money and realize that if you alter his will, you could instead use his estate to set up a foundation dedicated to feeding the homeless. You are quite certain no one would find out, since only you knew about your client’s true wishes. What should you do? Is a lawyer who misrepresents his deceased client's wishes doing something that is equivalent to lying? If so, does the 9th commandment permit lying for a good cause? Defend your answer in light of the 9th commandment while considering the following concepts from Week 3: justice, perfect duties, and imperfect duties.
