I have a client that wants us to advertise an IP block assigned by another

this?

There is no law.  ;)  Also, you can advertise the other provider's block given 
to your prospective customer as long as you work with that provider on how to 
do it.  However, if it's less than a /24 it won't get very far as most 
upstreams block prefixes longer than a /24.
