P1191 Plaintiffs represented by the same attorney in separate actions against the same defendant were not joint clients, so unless the presence of plaintiff #2 at a meeting between plaintiff #1 and the attorney was necessary to the representation of plaintiff#1, statements made by plaintiff#1 at the meeting were not confidential, and disclosure of those statements by plaintiff#2 to the attorney for the defendant was not ground for disqualification of the attorney for defendant.CitationROUSH v SEAGATE (Attorney Disqualification) 150 CA4 210 [See: CCP 128; EvC 952, 912, 962; Hetos v Kurtin 110 CA4 36, P/AT 9/03]
