Levy v. Senate of Pennsylvania, PICS Case No. 11-4255 (Pa. Commw. en banc Oct. 6, 2011) Simpson, J. (36 pages).
The attorney-client privilege did not shield the names of clients and descriptions in bills presented to the state Senate for reimbursement and the Senate officers and staff functioned as the client’s agents for communications, therefore, confidential communications through those persons were privileged. Final decision of the Senate appeals officer was affirmed in part and reversed in part.
