About this document
Priest-Penitent and Family Privileges by Mico Lrz is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The document discusses two types of legal privileges: (1) Priest-penitent privilege which protects confessions made to clergy from disclosure and can be waived by the penitent; and (2) Parental and filial privilege which prevents compelling a witness to testify against their direct ascendants or descendants and can also be waived. Both privileges can be invoked during legal proceedings but have exceptions, such as when consent is given or testimony is indispensable in certain crimes.
