suspected real estate fraud the judge roberts will preside over the hearing set for two m and apartment four of the nevada county courthouse in the better city disgruntled borrowers and lenders have not been allowed into the hearings in the past because hastert is a lawyer and some documents involved in investigation are protected by attorney client privilege special procedures have to be followed when the search warrant is served on someone who is an attorney to ensure that none of that attorney's attorney client privilege material i under the warrant district attorney cliff newell said hastert and his lawyer craig larry of marysville did not return phone calls on thursday from the union which is where with that story larry and the courts have been unable to agree on a bonded
