Describe four scenarios in which a public official faces an ethical dilemma and therefore, has a difficult decision to make. State the correct legal choice that the official should make keeping in mind the general aspects of the code of ethics.

Scenario 1: A public official, such as a city administrator, may need to approve a building project for a corporation. If he has made investments in that corporation, his decision could positively affect his personal finances. The correct path would be to abstain from a decision. In other words, the official should recuse or remove himself from the situation.

Scenario 2: A public official, such as a police officer, may have probable cause to search the house of a relative or close friend for criminal evidence. In this case, the ethically correct decision for the official would be to stick to her code of ethics and carry out the search nonetheless. She should thus not let her emotions get in the way of her duties and responsibilities.

Scenario 3: A public official, such as a federal judge, may have to preside over a criminal trial involving a family member. In this case, in order to ensure that the proceedings are fair and unbiased, the official must recuse himself from the criminal trial.

Scenario 4: A public official, such as an ambassador, may not necessarily like the cultural aspects of a country to which the president has assigned her. However, from an ethical perspective, she must do complete justice to her role as a negotiator between the governments of the two countries. She must respect the people (citizens and dignitaries) of the host country regardless of her opinions about their culture.
