Answer to Question 1

FALSE

Answer to Question 2

A simple database of a single table might be used to sort or organize a client list to identify conflicts. Each client record will contain the names of the adverse parties in their case, as well as information about the client's employment or affiliations. When a new client is entered into the system, the client list can be searched to determine if the firm has other clients adverse to the new client.
