In Re E.i. Dupont De Nemours and Company

Summary

The Texas Supreme Court held that the trial court did not err in holding a hearing on the plaintiffs' global challenge to DuPont's privilege log, but erred by refusing an in‑camera review of documents that contained both DuPont legal and non‑legal parties after DuPont made a prima facie showing of privilege. The Court affirmed the trial court's rulings on documents solely involving DuPont legal personnel and on those with no DuPont legal names, and conditionally granted mandamus relief directing a partial vacatur and further proceedings for the disputed mixed‑party documents.
