United States Sixth Circuit
TENNESSEE LABORERS HEALTH & WELFARE FUND v. COLUMBIA/HCA HEALTHCARE CORP., 00-6059
A healthcare company "completely and finally" waived any attorney-client or work product doctrine privilege associated with documents by previously producing them to government agencies. Therefore, an order compelling production of those documents was proper.
