United States v. Robert McPartlingreen
ca7 · 1979 · cited in 1 Florida opinions naming this issue, 1987–1987
2 sentences

1987Courts have recognized the common interests exception where the group members were criminal co-defendants, United States v. McPartlin, 595 F.2d 1321 (7th Cir.1979); Hunydee v. United States, 355 F.2d 183 (9th Cir.1965); civil co-defendants, Western Fuels Association v. Burlington Northern Railroad Co., 102 F.R.D. 201 ; In re LTV Securities Litigation, 89 F.R.D. 595 (N.D.Tex. 1981); companies that had individually been summoned before a grand jury, Continental Oil Co. v. United States, 330 F.2d 347 (9th Cir.1964); co-parties to potential litigation, In re LTV Securities Litigation, 89 F.R.D. 59

1987In holding the attorney-client privilege applicable to McPartlin's statements made in confidence to the investigator for his co-defendant's counsel for a purpose related to both defenses, the court reasoned that the common interests privilege does not require that the defenses be in all respects compatible, but is applicable "where different lawyers represent clients who have some interests in common," id. at 1336 (emphasis in original).
