No, Alabama was not the first state to have an ethics code for lawyers. The first state to adopt a formal code of ethics for attorneys was New York in 1908, with the introduction of the Canons of Professional Ethics. Alabama established its own ethics rules later, following the broader trend of states developing similar codes to govern legal practice.

Medical ethics is a system of principles which guide moral or acceptable conduct in medical care. The core principles of modern medical ethics are often listed as autonomy, beneficence, non-maleficence, and justice. Medical etiquette, by contrast, is simply the implicit code that governs socially acceptable behaviour for medical practitioners. In short, medical ethics guides behaviour by principles, whereas medical etiquette guides behaviour by convention. In practice, there is a large crossover between the two.
