A federal judge in Alabama, appointed by Donald Trump, has threatened to jail LGBTQ+ civil rights lawyers if they don't comply with his order to hand over a Q&A document by Monday 5 p.m. Central. The lawyers argue the document is protected by attorney-client privilege, but Judge Liles Burke suggests it may fall under the crime-fraud exception. The document, from a previous case, was meant to prepare for a hearing on judge-shopping allegations. This order challenges attorney-client privilege and could have broad implications for legal protections and attorney rights.
