Description
The plaintiffs appeal the trial courts order disqualifying their attorneys, Robert B. Sykes, James D. Vilos, and Matthew H. Raty, and the law firm of Sykes and Vilos, P.C. (hereinafter collectively referred to as "Sykes and Vilos"), on the ground that they had a conflict of interest. The complaint challenged the States authority to impose Medicaid liens on damages for personal injuries that Medicaid recipients recovered in lawsuits they brought against third parties. The trial court held that Sykes and Vilos had a conflict of interest under Rule 1.9 of the Utah Rules of Professional Conduct by their representation of the plaintiffs against the State. The court ruled Sykes and Vilos had a conflict of interest because they had previously represented the defendant, the State, in prior personal injury actions brought by Medicaid recipients against third persons, in which Sykes and Vilos agreed to preserve the States statutory Medicaid reimbursement liens against recoveries obtained on behalf of the Medicaid recipients.
