No doubt this sounds good to all you fry'em and then try'em people....but it really
does smack of the Big Brother snowball picking up speed on it's way downhill.

"...In a 218 to 201 vote, the ABA's policy-making body amended its ethics code to
allow, but not require, lawyers to breach attorney-client privilege if they believe
doing so would stop a client from committing a financial crime or fraud...

 ...Sharon Stern Gerstman of Buffalo, New York, said the recent corporate scandals
were not caused by lawyers' inability to reveal confidences and there is "not one
shred of evidence" that the rule change would have made a difference.
Instead, she said the ABA is being pressured by "government agencies that want us to
make their jobs of learning our clients' secrets easier for them."
