Chevron Corp. v. Page, No. 13-1382 (4th Cir. 2014)
Annotate this CaseIn these consolidated appeals, Chevron sought documents from two Maryland-based attorneys who assisted the lead attorney representing Ecuadorian plaintiffs in a multi-billion dollar judgment rendered in Ecuador against Chevron. The district court ordered production of the requested documents and the attorneys appealed. The court dismissed appeal number 13-1382 based on lack of subject matter jurisdiction to hear the appeal from the district court's order on Chevron's Rule 45 subpoenas because the finality rule prohibits such an interlocutory appeal, and affirmed the lower court's judgment in appeal number 13-2028 under 28 U.S.C. 1872 based on the lead attorney's waiver and two other independent bases to permit discovery of the documents at issue.
