A nonprofit legal organization in New Orleans that represents the accused in death penalty cases has sued a former intern in an attempt to prevent her from publishing a book based on a client.
The Louisiana Capital Assistance Center claimed that Alexandria Marzano-Lesnevich is violating attorney-client privilege in her writings, which have appeared on her website and in a literary journal. Ms. Marzano-Lesnevich was a law clerk at the center during the summer of 2003, when she was a student at Harvard Law School.
