Bronson Paralegal Is Writing a Motion That Will Be Filed

Bronson Paralegal is writing a motion that will be filed with the state court. He has located a case that holds exactly the opposite of the point he is trying to make. In order to rectify what Bronson sees as a losing motion, Bronson simply quotes from the case's ruling and inserts the word "not" at the appropriate place. Now the quote stands for the proposition that Bronson needs. "Unless the judge reads very carefully, he will never notice this small insertion," thinks Bronson. Just to be sure his supervising attorney doesn't get into trouble, though, Bronson tells the attorney what the case really says. Which of the following is likely to happen next?

A) Bronson may be told to fix the sentence back to an accurate quote, even if it means losing the motion.
B) Bronson may be fired for attempting to mislead the court but, at the very least, he will be in alot of trouble.
C) Bronson may be demoted from doing legal research to organizing documents.
D) Bronson will be told to fix the sentence back to an accurate quote, he may be demoted or he may be fired for attempting to mislead the court
