Evidentiary Privileges Against The Production Of Data Within The Control Of Executive Departments, William V. Sanford

Vanderbilt Law Review

In the conduct of their affairs the various executive departments and administrative agencies acquire much information--reports, documents, records of all kinds, and other data--which may be useful to litigants in civil and criminal actions. The public interest in a full and fair hearing of all disputes between individuals and between individuals and the state calls for the production and disclosure of all evidence relevant to the issues in dispute.'
