CALLING ALL FREEPER ATTORNEYS !

Can one or more of you weigh in on the legality of what Mills' attorney is advising his client?

Otherwise, we're just floundering around with our comments. Thanks.

This may be helpful. “PLAINTIFF’S URGENT RESPONSE TO
DEFENDANT’S STATUS REPORT” Link was at the yahoo article referred to in post 1.

IANAL but Judicial Watch seems to be appalled. As if Clintons don’t do this as regular as a sacrament.

I'm not an attorney, but since they are PUBLICLY ANNOUNCING this, it must mean that it provides some kind of legal protection if a client is 'advised' to do something by their attorney.

Else, we would not even be hearing about it.

This excerpt seems to apply to the circumstances (but, perhaps I'm interpreting incorrectly as I am not an attorney and actually I hope that I am misinterpreting because of the "or destroy it" reference).

"If a party disclosed the information to nonparties before receiving notice of a claim of privilege or protection as trial-preparation material, it must take reasonable steps to retrieve the information and to return it, sequester it until the claim is resolved, or destroy it."

"Whether the information is returned or not, the producing party must preserve the information pending the court's ruling on whether the claim of privilege or of protection is properly asserted and whether it was waived. As with claims made under Rule 26(b)(5)(A), there may be no ruling if the other parties do not contest the claim."
