Paralegal Beverly was sitting with Client Morrie, reading through Morrie's interrogatory answers from last year in preparation for Morrie's upcoming deposition. After reading one particular interrogatory response, Morrie declared: "OMG, Beverly! I can't believe we wrote that answer! That's completely wrong!" and then, mumbling to himself, Morrie said, "or maybe that was the lie I decided would be
better than telling the truth. Hmmm." When Beverly asks you what you make of that conversation with Morrie, you
A) tell her that it is not protected by any privilege because it is potentially a confession to a crime.
B) tell her that Morrie's words are completely covered by the attorney/client privilege so she will never have to repeat it to anyone outside of the office, but she should report the potential perjury to a supervising attorney.
C) tell her that it is not a protected communication because she is not an attorney.
D) tell her that it is protected confidential information so she cannot be called upon to testify about it.
