Attоrney is аn аssоciаte with the small criminal defense firm оf Herbert and Frank. Attorney’s client, Chani, has been charged with aggravated assault. During a preliminary hearing, Chani gave testimony on a material issue that Attorney knows to be false. Attorney attempted to ask additional questions at the end of the hearing to get Chani to correct her testimony, but that was unsuccessful. Attorney spoke with Chani after the hearing and Chani insists that everything she said was true. Attorney still knows the testimony is false, but Attorney is persuaded that Chani genuinely believes what she is saying. After returning to the office from the hearing, Attorney consults with the supervising lawyer, Frank. Frank advises Attorney that Chani is facing a long prison sentence and as a criminal defendant has a right to testify to what she believes occurred. Attorney expresses continued discomfort with continuing to represent Chani in this case, but Frank instructs Attorney to allow Chani to tell her story, as she believes it, including testifying at trial, if Chani desires to do so. Frank cites the client's right under the ethics rules to choose whether to testify and the Sixth Amendment to the US Constitution's confrontation clause as reasons they have to allow Chani to testify to her personal truth. Attorney completes the representation of Chani, including calling Chani to testify at trial. Her testimony included the prior false statements. Which of the following is true under the Model Rules?
