E-mail Communications On the Job: Privileged or Property of the Employer?
A recent Superior Court decision, National Economic Research Associates, Inc., et al. v. Evans, et al., (Gants, J.), merits attention by legal counsel for employers as well as employees in this era of fast and furious e-mail communications. The Court found that e-mail conversations between an employee and his lawyer, conducted via the employee's private, web-based e-mail account but from a company-issued computer, were protected by the attorney-client privilege. If you have not already read the Evans decision, please read it and come prepared to discuss it with your colleagues. This luncheon program will provide you with an opportunity to discuss the various issues raised in Evans, share thoughts and ideas on how the decision might impact the advice you are giving your clients, or just pick up a few practice tips. |
