[FN4] Additionally, and contrary to the majority's view, because OCA asserted an attorney-client relationship with all UCS judges solely by nature of its status, OCA is limited to advancing that justification and no other for its purported attorney-client privilege upon remittal ( see majority op at 9 n 3; see also Matter of Madeiros , 30 NY3d at 74, quoting Sche
