Shortened title.
Full title: Why is it problematic that @Comey is now claiming Columbia Professor Daniel Richman is his lawyer? Here's why:
Richman received 4 of the seven memos Comey took with him after he was fired as FBI Director by President Trump.
When you're fired, you're not allowed to take documents containing classified information with you as 'personal papers'.
The Hill reported FOUR of the seven memos Comey took with him contained classified information.

Now, 8 months later, Comey has suddenly declared that the person he gave the classified documents to, a person with no security clearance, is now his lawyer.
If his lawyer leaked these documents to the New York Times, then he probably waived any lawyer-client privilege associated with them anyway.
It’s fun to watch the cockroaches run when the light’s turned on. Run roach, run!
I’m wondering if any of these possible charges- conspiring to kill a President- can any of these possible charges carry the death penalty? Firing some of these guys, or fining them, letting them write books and go on Oprah- it just doesn’t seem right. These are scary claims and charges coming. Watergate was nothing compared to this and liberals base their lives and histories on that.
And hasn't he given interviews since that time?
This is to keep him silent on attorney client privilege. What does that tell you. If I were judge , I would deny the privilege and refer for disbarment based on the continuation of a crime by taking stolen classified documents without government approval and I would refer for prosecution . This is utter nonsense but I must ask once again— where is jeff sessions?
He has no attorney-client privilege with Richman because Richman is now a co-conspirator and co-defendant in any criminal proceedings.
Sessions needs to get off his ass and charge Comey and the lawyer. They can debate all this while in Prison for 20 years. Otherwise, this makes no difference to anyone.
Comey - I have decided to live my life as a tall, gay man!
Daniel Richman and I are getting married.
Can an attorney client privilege exist when the lawyer is a party to the same conspiracy as the client?
Posted today by Q Anon. Can anyone verify?
“Can an attorney client privilege exist when the lawyer is a party to the same conspiracy as the client?”
Arrest the lawyer for accepting confidential government information without a security clearance.
A little online research indicates that both federal and state courts have the power to disqualify an attorney from continuing to represent a client. While uncommon in actual practice, valid reasons for its use include fairly representing the case in court and preventing conflicts of interest.
“It’s fun to watch the cockroaches run when the light’s turned on. Run roach, run!”
It would be a lot more fun to see the roaches get stepped on.
No. Prosecutors will sometimes get certain lawyers disqualified from representing clients in organized crime cases on the grounds that the lawyers themselves are also potential defendants in the case.
Is a professor in New York licensed to practice law in the District of Columbia?
The guy may not be licensed to practice anywhere at all. If he just took Comey’s memos and disclosed the contents to the NYT then he wasn’t even doing anything to practice law anyway.
“It all depends on the definition of ‘is.’” ... Bill Clinton
Let’s not forget - Comey himself testified under oath that he gave the classified memos to his friend to give to the media in hopes that a special counsel would begin a witch hunt against the newly elected president of the United States
