*********************************************************************************

It is the purpose of the crime-fraud exception to the attorney-client privilege to assure that the “seal of secrecy” between lawyer and client does not extend to communications made for the purpose of getting advice for the commission of a fraud or crime. U.S. v. Zolin, 491 U.S. 554, 562-63 (1989).

Well....Perkins possibly transitioning into a “Criminal” Law Firm. Lets hope they find some reviewable contacts with Donna Brazille.
