The case raises important proverb

 The case raises important issues that affect the public's right to know and the government's ability to use the attorney-client privilege as a shield to deny access to documents that reflect its operations at the highest levels.

 We are confident that after careful consideration of these issues that this court, and any other court, would say that there is no basis for the extraordinary breach of the attorney-client privilege by allowing the government to call Mr. Carter to produce documents or to be a witness against his client.

 The attorney-client privilege is the bedrock principle of our legal system, ... The confidential nature of the attorney-client relationship is no less important in government than in every other context where it exists.

 The Supreme Court acted appropriately today rejecting Mr. Starr's attempt to bypass the traditional appeals process on the subject of attorney-client privilege, ... Contrary to Mr. Starr's claims, the governmental attorney-client privilege is not a 'new' privilege. It is well established that confidentiality is the cornerstone of all attorney-client communications.

 The White House is doing everything it can to determine what documents wouldn't fall under executive privilege or attorney-client privilege.

 These were documents protected by client-attorney privilege.

 The public has a right to know whether the government is doing what it's supposed to in cases like this, ... If the government has the power to squelch all that information under the guise of attorney-client privilege, that doesn't instill confidence. It says, 'Don't file the compliant, it can be covered up.'

 [Attorney Larry R. Feldman, who represented the alleged victim in the 1994 child molestation lawsuit against Jackson, told CNN on Tuesday that he would] not confirm or deny ... violation of attorney-client privilege.

 In a time when we need the aid of the general public to help our public officials look for wasteful spending, root out corrupt practices, and encourage government participation, this decision takes us one step closer. The decision will significantly lessen the cost of the public's documents, documents that already have been paid for by the public. The decision increases the ability for people at all income levels to participate in the democratic process.

 We continue to believe that the attorney client privilege should protect conversations between government officials and government attorneys. The American people benefit from decisions made by government officials, including the President, on the basis of full and frank information and discussion,

 With the privilege, we and our clients are secure in the knowledge that we cannot be subpoenaed or otherwise forced to divulge what they tell us. Only with the protection of attorney-client privilege can our clients tell us the whole story and only then can we provide effective counsel or advocacy. Any undermining of that privilege is a cause of great concern to the profession.

 The Legislature's low public-approval ratings reflect citizens' frustrations with the partisan bickering, inactivity, and stalemate at the highest levels of state government. As a result, the state remains stagnant and unrepresentative.

 should be used a shield for sensitive evidence, not a sword the government can use at will to cut off argument in a case before the evidence can be presented. We are urging the Supreme Court, which has not directly addressed this issue in 50 years, to rein in the government's misuse of this privilege.

 If the documents from Mr. Anderson were given to the university in order to write papers and do studies that would become public and possibly to display or create a book on some of these documents, then those documents are no longer intended to be protected by a privilege.

 Compelling the disclosure of confidential sources has a chilling effect on the free flow of information that is so vital to a democratic society. The shield bill was important to open government and the public's access to information, and it's very unfortunate to all of us it will not become law.
