  I have a business requirement to update the originating lead of the subordinate contact upon a merge.  The lead is in a Qualified state.  My attempt to do this from within a plugin result in the "The lead is already closed" error.  Is it possible to update the lead without changing the state back to an active state from a plug-in?  What would be the best solution?
