Is a fee sharing contract that violates the rules of professional conduct enforceable?

A few years ago I reported on an Illinois case that held that a contract that violated the rules of professional conduct could not be enforceable.  I did not like the decision, and my comments on it are here.

I was reminded of this case because just a couple of days I ago I read that a court in Washington DC recently reached a different result.  The Legal Profession blog has a report here.
