2000Id., citing In re Dayco Corp. Derivative Securities Litigation , supra, 99 ("Generally, waiver of a privilege occurs when actions by the holder would make it unfair to insist that the privilege still exists.") (emphasis added); In re Von Bulow , supra, ("Applying the fairness doctrine, we hold therefore that the extrajudicial disclosure of an attorney-client communication — one not subsequently used by the client in a judicial proceeding to his adversary's prejudice — does not waive the privilege as to the undisclosed portions of the communications.") (emphasis added).

2000The Second Circuit holds in In re Von Bulow , supra, 103: "Matters actually disclosed in public lose their privileged status because they obviously are no longer confidential.

1 sentence

1988We do not agree with the trial court’s analysis of La Petite Auherge vis-a-vis its “employing the reason in Shively as its predicate.” Although the Rhode Island Supreme Court agreed with the fairness principle enunciated in Shively , it immediately footnoted that “agreement.” That footnote said since the Rhode Island statute “is broad enough to empower the commission to issue discovery subpoenas at the request of a party to a contested case, we do not need to hold, as the Shively court did, that the common law supplies its own authority, in the absence of stat ute, to an administrative agency
