MATTER OF WITNESSES BEFORE SP. MARCH 1980 GR. JURY

No. 83-1611.

729 F.2d 489 (1984)

In the Matter of WITNESSES BEFORE THE SPECIAL MARCH 1980 GRAND JURY. Appeal of UNITED STATES of America.

United States Court of Appeals, Seventh Circuit.

Decided March 2, 1984.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

William C. Bryson, Dept. of Justice, Washington, D.C., for appellant.

John J. Jiganti, Harris, Burman, Sinars & Jiganti, Chicago, Ill., for appellee.

Before CUDAHY, ESCHBACH and COFFEY, Circuit Judges.

CUDAHY, Circuit Judge.

In this appeal we consider the application of the attorney-client privilege to a grand jury's subpoena of information about a known client's fees. The district court found that the subpoenaed fee information was privileged because it might tend to incriminate the client. We conclude that the attorney-client privilege does not protect all of the subpoenaed materials, and we therefore reverse the judgment of the district court.
