Durham From Judge Cooper: There were nearly 40 emails that Fusion GPS asserted privilege over (at the request Hillary For America.) Fusion said they were protected by attorney-client privilege. Today, the judge granted access to 22 of the emails, ruling they are not privileged communications between attorney and client, but focused on media + PR issues. BUT “the government will not be permitted to introduce the emails and attachments (at trial) that the Court has ruled are not subject to privilege.”
Fusion GPS lost its fight to keep many of its "privileged" emails from Special Counsel John Durham. This is bad news for Fusion - they'll likely lose the fight to keep over 1,500 remaining documents from Durham.
