April 15, 2009 Opinion or Order Filing 181 ORDER: Pursuant to colloquy with counsel on the record on 4/15/09, and by agreement, 174 Plaintiffs' Emergency Joint Motion for Discovery Order as to Depositions is granted insofar as the depositions of Attorneys Michael Milliken, Arthur Potts, Jr., and Robert Tucker may be taken. Plaintiffs further "seek a determination from the Court that, by virtue of the crime-fraud exception, neither the attorney-client privilege nor the attorney work-product doctrine can be asserted by these attorneys as a basis for refusing to respond to inquiries related to the formation, operation, or management of the Forbes Family Trust." (Mot. at 2.) Because some of the communications between these attorneys and Mr. Forbes may significantly pre-date April 15, 1998, determination of the applicability of the crime-fraud exception will require a more particularized inquiry than is possible on the record before the Court. Accordingly, to the extent Plaintiffs' motion seeks a determination from the Court as to the applicability of the crime-fraud exception, such motion is denied without prejudice to renew.
