In the same matter, the court addressed a discovery dispute involving documents the government claimed were protected by law enforcement and deliberative process privileges and ordered certain documents released. 

Before joining Ashurst Perkins Coie, Molly advised community associations on nonprofit corporate governance, the interpretation and amendment of governing documents, community rules enforcement, and property damage liability.
