Summary:	Provides legal analysis of prohibition in Title 18, Section 205 of the U.S. Code on acting as an "agent or attorney" for another in a matter before the Government. Examines whether that conflict of interest provision would bar Federal employees from appearing before a Federal agency as a private citizen to present his or her own views on a matter before that agency, or would bar Federal employees from providing uncompensated technical assistance or expertise to an outside group at that group's meetings with Federal agencies concerning a matter before that agency.
