Amusing* Thing of the Day
*Probably "likely only to amuse me":
Illustrations (from the Evidence Act on legal privilege)
(a) A, a client, says to B, a solicitor: “I have committed forgery and I wish you to defend me”.
As the defence of a man known to be guilty is not a criminal purpose this communication is protected from disclosure.
(b) A, a client, says to B, a solicitor: “I wish to obtain possession of property by the use of a forged deed on which I request you to sue”.
This communication being made in furtherance of a criminal purpose is not protected from disclosure.
(c) A, being charged with embezzlement, retains B, a solicitor, to defend him. In the course of the proceedings B observes that an entry has been made in A’s account-book, charging A with the sum said to have been embezzled, which entry was not in the book at the commencement of his employment.
This being a fact observed by B in the course of his employment, showing that a fraud has been committed since the commencement of the proceedings, it is not protected from disclosure.
