Parkway Gallery Furniture, Inc. v. Kittenger/Pennsylvania House Group, Inc.
United States District Court for the Middle District of North Carolina
116 F.R.D. 46 (1987)
- Written by Sean Carroll, JD
Facts
Parkway Gallery Furniture, Inc. (Parkway) (plaintiff) requested certain discovery from Kittenger/Pennsylvania House Group, Inc. (Kittenger) (defendant). The production was not subject to any particular time constraints. Kittenger produced 12,000 copied pages of documents, virtually all its files. Included in this production, by inadvertent disclosure, were 20 documents protected by the attorney-client privilege. Some of these documents were clearly marked as privileged. Kittenger argued that because the disclosure of the privileged documents was inadvertent, it should not be held to have waived the attorney-client privilege. Parkway disagreed.
