(c) Propriety
(d) Competence and Diligence
List II:
(i) The judicial duties of a judge take precedence over all other activities
(ii) A judge shall not allow the use of the judge's residence by a member of the legal profession to receive clients

Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer D

Application 1.3 (Independence) concerns freedom from executive and legislative influence, 2.5 (Impartiality) concerns disqualification, 4.5 (Propriety) bars lawyers from using a judge's residence to receive clients, and 6.1 (Competence and Diligence) says judicial duties "take precedence over all other activities". The residence rule is easily placed under Integrity, but it appears under Propriety. India's Restatement has a similar clause on family members using the judge's residence.
