Cases of sexual harassment and rape are increasingly common in various countries. Rape is defined as an assault in the form of forced sexual intercourse by inserting a penis, finger or other object into the victim’s vagina, anus or mouth. Attacks are carried out not only by coercion, violence, or threats of violence.

Victims have the possibility of experiencing post-rape stress which can be divided into two, namely immediate stress and long-term stress. Immediate stress is a post-event reaction such as physical pain, guilt, fear, anxiety, shame, anger, and helplessness.

A lawyer’s legal advice is privileged. A court cannot order the lawyer or the client to disclose it. But a lawyer’s nonlegal advice is not privileged. What happens when advice is partly legal and partly nonlegal and the two parts cannot be untangled? In such dual-purpose situations, does the privilege protect all the advice or none of it?

On Monday, the Supreme Court will hear opposing answers to that question in a case known as In re Grand Jury. A law firm will argue that the privilege should protect all client communications “where obtaining or providing legal advice was one of the significant purposes behind the communication,” even if nonlegal advice predominated.
