Description
If an attorney is representing a criminal defendant and discovers the client is using a false name, is that knowledge protected under attorney-client privilege or does the attorney have an obligation to tell the court? It's a protected privilege, according to the Bar Board of Governors, unless the client affirmatively asserts the false identity in court.
