Describe the attorney-client privilege. Describe the work product doctrine.
On Jun 22, 2024
All information relating to a client's representation is considered confidential information.
Some confidential information also qualifies as privileged information, or information subject to the attorney-client privilege. The attorney-client privilege is a rule of evidence requiring that confidential communications between a client and his or her attorney (relating to their professional relationship) be kept confidential, unless the client consents to disclosure. State statutes and court cases define what constitutes privileged information. Generally, any communications concerning a client's legal rights or problems fall under the attorney-client privilege. The attorney-client privilege arises even if the lawyer decides not to represent the client and when the client is not charged any fee.

Which amendment to the U.S. Constitution permits a civil jury trial? Is a jury trial required in a civil case? Who decides this and why?
On May 19, 2024
The Seventh Amendment guarantees the right to a jury trial in federal courts in all "suits at common law" when the amount in controversy exceeds $20 (the equivalent of forty days' salary at that time). If this threshold requirement is met, either party may request a jury trial.
The right to a trial by jury does not have to be exercised, and many cases are tried without one. In most states and in federal courts, one of the parties must request a jury trial, or the right is presumed to be waived (i.e., the court will presume that neither party wants a jury trial).
