State v. Taylor

Supreme Court of Louisiana
Oct 9, 1987
511 So. 2d 1141 (La. 1987)

Opinion

No. 87-KK-1918.

September 11, 1987. Reconsideration Denied October 9, 1987.

In re Taylor, Nick D.; Applying for Supervisory and/or Remedial Writs; Parish of Caddo 1st Judicial District Court Div. "C" Number 125,348; to the Court of Appeal, Second Circuit, Number 19320-KW.


Writ denied.

Pursuant to an order from this court, the trial judge conducted a pretrial hearing on the admissibility of the attorney-client communications. The evidence credited by the trial judge established that the communications, more probably than not, were made in pursuit of a criminal act of conspiracy to hide the apparent murder weapon and are not protected by the attorney-client privilege.

DENNIS, J., concurs but notes that the privilege is still intact and enforceable as to those attorney-client communications not made in furtherance of a criminal act.
