ABSTRACT When used in legal forums, the persuasive abilities of narrative raise ethical questions. Depending on the jurisdiction, some ethical rules apply to persuasive legal narrative, but these rules establish a minimum standard that does not address how to analyse more nuanced forms of fabrication, such as what kind of inferences can be drawn from evidence to support a narrative. The need to allow lawyers discretion to fashion persuasive cases does not mean that the use of deception by lawyers or law students should be accepted with a shrug. The current lack of guidance to lawyers and students, which contributes to cynicism regarding fact presentation, should be addressed with guidance about how to use persuasive legal narrative in an effective, ethical manner.

有说服力的法律叙述：阐明道德标准

摘要 在法律论​​坛中使用时，叙事的说服能力会引发伦理问题。根据司法管辖区的不同，一些道德规则适用于有说服力的法律叙述，但这些规则建立了一个最低标准，并没有解决如何分析更细微的捏造形式，例如可以从证据中得出什么样的推论来支持叙述。允许律师自由裁量地制作有说服力的案件并不意味着应该耸耸肩接受律师或法学院学生使用欺骗手段。目前缺乏对律师和学生的指导，这导致了对事实陈述的冷嘲热讽，应该通过有关如何以有效、合乎道德的方式使用有说服力的法律叙述的指导来解决。
