Able, an attorney, sued Clinton, a client, for his fee, based on an agreed hourly rate. Clinton subpoenaed the attorney's time records for the days on which he purported to have worked for Clinton, in order to show that Able had billed an impossible number of hours to Clinton and others on those days. Clinton's subpoena provided that any information concerning the matters handled for other clients be deleted or masked. Able moved to quash the subpoena on the ground of attorney-client privilege. The subpoena should be
upheld, because the information about hours billed is not within the privilege  upheld, because an attorney has no right to invoke his clients' privilege without instructions from the clients.  quashed, because an attorney is entitled to a right of privacy for the work product in his files.  quashed, because no permission was obtained from the other clients to divulge information from their files.
