1. When may a paralegal disclose attorney-client privilege information?

Explanation

A paralegal may never disclose attorney-client privilege information. Attorney-client privilege is a legal concept that protects the confidentiality of communications between an attorney and their client. This privilege extends to the paralegal as well, and they are bound by professional and ethical obligations to maintain the confidentiality of such information. Therefore, without the explicit permission from the attorney, SJA (Staff Judge Advocate), or TJAG (The Judge Advocate General), a paralegal cannot disclose attorney-client privilege information.

Explanation

Explanation

It is important to ensure that new arrivals have a comfortable place to live as their basic needs must be met before anything else.

However, providing a comfortable living space should be the first priority.
