After the first witness stands down, P's attorney calls D's attorney and asks him to repeat his conversation withD. On D's attorney's objection, what ruling and why?

(2) Instead of calling D's attorney, P calls D to testify as to what he said to his attorney. On D's attorney's objection, what ruling and why?

(3) Suppose, instead, that D is asked, "What did you tell the trustee of the Widow Brown Trust?" D replies, "I object. I just told that to my attorney." What ruling and why?

(4) Suppose that D is asked to hand over to P's attorney notes that he has been writing to his attorney during the trial. On D's objection, what ruling and why? What result ifD is asked to produce notes and letters to his attorney sent prior to the trial?

(5) Before trial, at a preliminary hearing, P's attorney moves for an order directing D's attorney, if he has possession of the deed or any document purporting to be the deed, to deliver it to the clerk to be marked as Plaintiff's Exhibit 1 for identification. D's attorney objects on the grounds that the deed was given to him in private by D. What ruling and why?
