Legal Question in Family Law in Nevada
atty client privilege
Plaintiff in a divorce gave copy of notes/memos to defendant (purposely or inadvertently) that he gave to his atty. and told defendant that an affidavit was prepared by his lawyer based on those notes. He did not read the affidavit because lawyer only gave him the last page to sign. It turned out that affidavit is either inconsistent with the notes or had omitted certain facts.
QUESTIONS:
1) Did plaintiff waive his attorney- client- privilege, thus allowing defendant to use note/memos as evidence?
2) Can he be called at trial to answer questions regarding his testimonies for possible impeachment?
3) Can evidences be referenced by description only in the pretrial memorandums and actual document presented at trial?
