Advocacy is one of the most important institutions that can play a constructive role in the process of achieving justice. The presence of a lawyer in judicial trials will greatly facilitate the discovery of the truth and the prevention of encroachments and violations of citizens' rights. The necessity and importance of the right of defense have made it possible for advanced legal and judicial systems to view it as an important part of a fair trial to provide the necessary background for lawyers to perform their missions at all stages of the proceedings. Therefore, the presence of defense counsel during the proceedings is one of the most important and basic rights of the defendants and, in this respect, is particularly important in criminal matters. Therefore, the present study has attempted to examine the legal and ethical foundations of lawyer involvement in the judicial process.

The presence of a lawyer in the criminal justice process is justified on a legal and ethical basis. The legal basis of the right to choose a lawyer in the criminal procedure process has justice based and utility approaches. In the (justice-based approach), the participation of the lawyer guarantees the defendant's fair trial and fair trial. But under the (utilitarian approach), the participation of the lawyer in order to prevent the diversion of justice, to prevent the arbitrariness of those involved in the criminal justice system, to speed up the process of justice and to secure legitimate liberties, can be justified. But the ethical principles of the right to choose a lawyer in the criminal proceedings; In order to prevent delays in the proceedings, non-discrimination between designated attorneys and reciprocal and subjugation attorneys, the statement of facts to the client while justifying the subject matter and the secrecy of the client's statements can be justified.

The main purpose of criminal law must be to secure the basic human rights or fundamental rights of individuals. But the matter is the relationship between morality and human rights. For the purpose of the science of morality is to bring humanity to the highest degree of humanity, and the purpose of law is to achieve relative justice and to restore order in society. Equity is also a means of assigning justice and tailoring its rules to specific cases. Thus, justice and equity are closely intertwined. Ethics and law are two sciences with two distinct goals, and some jurists believe that any confusion between ethics and law should be avoided. Therefore, this article examines the relationship between morality and fundamental rights.

One of the positive steps that current judicial procedures can take to bring about justice for individuals is that it is true that morality should be avoided in any way. Obedience leads to the intellectual disengagement of lawyers and the departure from the goal of justice, and the excessive inclusion of ethics in the world of law causes the judge's personal emotions to replace legal principles. On the other hand, the main purpose of criminal law should be to safeguard human rights and maintain a moral framework. By enacting explicit, clear and understandable laws for all, the legislator will consolidate the principles of sound criminal policy and prevent violations of these rights.

The presence of women in society can be considered as an important social category according to their inherent and acquired competencies and abilities. One of the necessities that has been considered in today's society is the need for women to be present in some jobs and special social responsibilities, and this necessity for attending to provide services to people in society is quite obvious and obvious. Islam has also confirmed the presence of women in society based on many documents. The issue discussed in this article is whether women, given their acquired and innate abilities and competencies, can play a role in important political and social positions?

Knowing that maintaining and strengthening the foundation of the family is one of the most important pillars of Islam, certainly the social presence of women should not disrupt this important matter. Accordingly, the present study examines the views of the religion of Islam on the social presence of women based on their innate and acquired abilities and capabilities. Now that the necessity of a woman's presence in society is completely logical and inevitable. Another question arises that what should be the quality of his presence and the criteria and conditions of his role-playing in society according to religious orders and moral requirements? In order to answer the questions mentioned in the present study, which has been done in a descriptive-analytical method and using library sources and texts, it has been concluded that women's social participation in the form of employment is allowed from the Islamic point of view. Needs and requirements related to it should also be considered. On the other hand, the indecent employment of women in today's society faces many moral challenges, including "injustice", "sexual abuse and harassment against women", "unwillingness to have children" and "separation and divorce".

Designing a comprehensive model for verified relationships based on the actual tested data can help to better understand and explain the factors affecting research misconduct. The purpose of this study is to validate the model for factors affecting research misconduct in Iranian medical research.

Using convenience sampling, 264 people answered the questionnaires developed from the research model. Data were analyzed by the Structural Equation Modeling method and AMOS software.

The results of the Measurement Model showed that the thirteen-factor structure of this model has an acceptable fit in terms of goodness-of-fit indices. The results of all indicators related to the Structural Equation Analysis showed that the model has good fit. Of 22 theoretical relationships between the factors affecting research misconduct, 14 relationships were confirmed.

The proposed model is fit for explaining the relationships between the factors affecting research misconduct and can observe the interplay between existing factors and activities at macro, meso and micro levels of research systems.

The validity of questionnaires based on content validity method and reliability of the questionnaires based on Cronbach's alpha method are assessed. Finally, a structural equation modeling is adopted to examine the relations between considered variables via using statistical analysis software, namely SMART PLS.

The results show that the size of the effect of organizational DNA on the performance of the organization at a significant level of 95%, is 626, which plays a significant role in the organization's performance, and prominent capital also mediates this relationship. Also, the organization's ethical climate modifies the relationship between organizational DNA and organizational performance in the branches of the National Bank.
