General Counsel Dugan's Fingerprints Are All Over This
In earlier posts, we detailed UNR General Counsel Mary Dugan's ridiculous, not to mention fraudulent, attempt to assert an "attorney-client privilege" relationship over an employee who worked at another university.
See "UNR Lawyers And Graeme Abel Had Something To Hide" and "UNR Lawyers, Graeme Abel, And Others Exposed".
Dugan's blatant abuse of the "attorney-client privilege" to unlawfully conceal public documents (a felony) did not stop there. She tried the same unlawful act with the NCAA.
A colleague of ours received a stack of documents the other day, including email communications between UNR Faculty Athletic Representative Jean Perry and the NCAA. Perry oversees compliance at UNR.
Well, sure enough, at the behest of the UNR General Counsel, Dr. Perry asked the NCAA to send the "UNR Public Infractions Report" to UNR with a label of "attorney-client privilege".
The public infractions report details the penalties imposed on UNR and former Golf Coach Rich Merritt.
The goal of Dugan and Perry was, of course, to keep these documents from the public: If a request came in from the media for this report, they would declare it "attorney client privilege" and refuse to produce it.
One major problem though . . . there is no "attorney-client privilege" on documents between the NCAA Enforcement Staff and UNR. That is absolutely absurd! Try law school 101.
The NCAA denied the request, notifying Perry that no such privilege exists over these documents.
Perry, of course, then informed the NCAA she would need to talk to Dugan before they proceeded with receiving the report (to prepare for damage control).
