The confidentiality assurance in Guideline 3(e) of the LACC guidelines is not absolute and becomes subject to the open justice principle when disclosures are placed before the Court in an originating application for admission.

Disclosure of privileged material in an affidavit filed in support of an admission application constitutes a limited purpose waiver only, not a general waiver.
