How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • stating that to determine whether production of privileged material was “inadvertent,” a court should ask “whether the party intended [the] privileged . . . document to be produced”
  • “no delay” in trying to rectify its error where party requested document’s return one day after learning it had been produced
  • defendant promptly requested the document’s return one day after learning it had been pro- duced
  • no waiver where disclosing party “immediately objected” to the use of privileged communications at a deposition, requested the documents back the next day, and followed up with a written request
  • “[T]he 13 structure of Rule 502 suggests that the analysis under subpart (b)(1) is intended to be much simpler, 14 essentially asking whether the party intended a privileged or work-product protected document to 15 be produced or whether the production was a mistake.”
