SDNY COURTHOUSE,
July 29 – Greg Forrester has
filed a discrimination lawsuit
against his former employer
National Voluntary
Organizations Active in
Disaster,
Inc..
On July 29, U.S. District
Court for the Southern
District of New York Chief
Magistrate Judge Gabriel W.
Gorenstein held a discovery
conference. Inner City Press
covered it.
At issues
were electronic devices that
NVOAD say belong to it.
Forrester says some of the
emails on them are covered by
attorney client privilege
NVOAD shot back, citing an ABA
directive about avoiding
putting such communications on
devices belonging to an
employer / adversary.
Talk
turned to turning the devices
over to a mutually agreeable
third party.
Forrester's
lawyer wonder why this was
necessary. But it seems it is
going to happen.
The case is
Forrester v. National
Voluntary Organizations Active
in Disaster, Inc. et al.,
21-cv-422 (Koeltl /
Gorenstein)
