WATERTOWN, Massachusetts, March 25 [Category: BizEngineering] -- Vanasse Hangen Brustlin Inc., a provider of transportation planning, engineering, design, land development and environmental services, posted the following news:

VHB Advances Affordable Housing with Solar in Henrico
*
Through close collaboration with Virginia Housing, the development team, and design partners, Helios Spy Rock brings 186 units of income-restricted housing to Henrico County. Developed using Low Income Housing Tax Credits (LIHTC), the community was designed to support long-term affordability while integratingon-site renewable energy to help manage operating costs. VHB provided civil engineering, rezoning, permitting, survey, landscape architecture, lighting, and amenity design services-helping bring one of the region's first affordable housing developments featuring a solar array from concept to reality.
Sustainability became a defining element of the project early in the planning process. During conceptual planning, the team identified an adjacent parcel that created the opportunity to incorporate a solar array to partially power the buildings. By planning for renewable energy from the start, the system became a seamless part of the overall site plan. The site's steep topography also required thoughtful coordination, but VHB worked closely with the architect to step building elevations with the natural grade, balancing cut and fill, creating a more dynamic layout, and reducing material costs. Ongoing coordination with Virginia Housing helped make certain affordability requirements were met and funding remained on track, while VHB's familiarity with local regulations and strong relationships with the County supported an aggressive development schedule.
"For us, this project was about creating a community people are proud to call home," said Marshall Agee, I-64 Institutions Market Leader. "Affordable housing should feel intentional, welcoming, and built to last. By coordinating closely with our partners and integrating sustainable strategies from the start, we aimed to create a community that supports stability and opportunity for the families who call it home."
In addition to its energy features, Helios Spy Rock includes amenities designed to support long-term resident satisfaction, including a clubhouse, fitness center, bicycle storage, gated parking, playground, and access to public transit. As communities across the region look to pair housing affordability with sustainable solutions, this project reflects what can be achieved through early planning, collaboration, and thoughtful design.

*
Springfield, MO, March 23, 2026 - Aetna Better Health of Missouri, a CVS Health company (NYSE: CVS ), announced today that Aetna provided a total of $35,000 in funding to two community-based organizations in central Missouri to improve access to health care and support child and family well being. The donations support community programs that directly address persistentbarriers to care faced by rural communities, including long travel distances for medical services, limited transportation options, and challenges accessing early childhood and family support resources.
"We're committed to supporting the health of communities by collaborating with trusted organizations and advancing initiatives that address care needs," said Dr. Michelle Bucknor, Regional Chief Medical Officer, Aetna Better Health. "By working together to reduce barriers like transportation and gaps in family support, we help connect individuals and families-especially in rural areas-to the care and resources they need to thrive."
Expanding access to transportation in west central Missouri
Aetna provided funding to West Central Community Development Corporation to support New Growth Transit, a volunteer based driver program that provides free and safe transportation across west central Missouri.
Many residents in these rural regions must travel long distances for non emergency health care such as dialysis, chemotherapy and specialist appointments, as well as to access employment and food. In 2025 alone, New Growth Transit drivers covered more than 550,000 miles, with the average one way trip measuring 39 miles-most requiring round trip service the same day.
Funding from Aetna will support in-person volunteer driver training, including rider engagement best practices, vehicle inspections and program policy education.
"Our volunteer drivers often make the difference between a person getting the care they need or going without," said Kelly Ast, Regional Mobility Chief Officer, New Growth Transit. "The support from Aetna helps us provide quality training and strengthen a program that so many rural residents rely on."
Dean Kneller, a rider supported by the program, added, "Without New Growth Transit, I would have missed critical treatments. The volunteers don't just provide rides-they provide people a chance to stay healthy."
Supporting child and family well-being
Aetna also awarded funding to The Community Partnership, an organization dedicated to improving child welfare, maternal and child health and early childhood development outcomes across rural south central Missouri. The funding will support programs focused on parenting education, developmental support for children with disabilities and coaching for early childhood providers.

Award Comes During a Night of Inspiration and Recognition as Nexstar Celebrates Remarkable Women Across America
NASHVILLE, TN (March 23, 2026) - Nexstar Media Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: NXST) today announced that it has selected Ms. Becca Stevens as its 2026 "Remarkable Woman of the Year." In a powerful tribute to resilience, leadership, and unshakable hope, the prestigioushonor was announced during an uplifting, star-studded event in Nashville, televised nationwide on The CW Network last Friday evening and hosted by media personality Leeza Gibbons.
Selected from a pool of 125 extraordinary nominees from television markets across the country, Ms. Stevens was honored not only for her transformational advocacy, but for turning personal adversity into a global mission of healing and empowerment. A survivor of childhood trauma, Ms. Stevens transformed her experience into a lifelong commitment to create safe, loving, and economically empowering pathways for women recovering from trafficking, addiction, and exploitation. As the 2026 Remarkable Woman of the Year, Ms. Stevens was awarded $30,000 to donate to the non-profit charitable organization of her choice. Nexstar has also committed to airing public service announcements in support of her chosen charity.
As the founder of Thistle Farms, a $13 million global movement, Ms. Stevens has spent nearly three decades dedicated to women's freedom from trafficking and exploitation. Since 1997, working alongside survivors, she has built nationally recognized residential recovery communities and thriving justice enterprises providing meaningful employment to women. Her vision helped Thistle Farms expand far beyond its Nashville-based home: Ms. Stevens has founded 13 nonprofits, mentored more than 70 organizations, and raised $90 million to advance mission-driven work around the world. Through the Thistle National Network and Global Shared Trade, she helps support 92 organizations and 1,400 artisan survivors across 21 countries amplifying a message rooted in dignity, community, and economic freedom.
A celebrated author and speaker, Ms. Stevens continues to inspire audiences globally with her unwavering belief that love is the most powerful force for change.
"I am grateful to Nexstar for honoring the work of the entire Thistle Farms community," said Ms. Stevens. "What started as a small housing venture for female survivors of abuse thirty years ago has turned into a global movement for women's freedom. Receiving this award is confirmation that love is the most powerful force for change in the world. I hope shining this light on the justice enterprise work we are doing helps other women find their way home. Thank you!"
Now in its seventh year, Nexstar's Remarkable Women initiative has generated more than 70,000 nominations nationwide -with 70% submitted of them by other women-proving that greatness is often nurtured in community. Local market finalists and nominees are profiled on Nexstar's local stations and on the company's national cable news network, NewsNation.

* Sherita Harmon (Houston, TX) for Education - Empowering students through innovative teaching, real-world health science training, and nonprofits that provide mentorship and essential resources, removing barriers to opportunity and success.
* Martha Kaley (Greensboro, NC) for Healthcare - Turned her own accidental breast cancer discovery into a national movement for earlier detection, founding the only U.S. nonprofit dedicated to developing a biological test for early identification and helping fund 138 research grants and nearly $5.5 million in scientific breakthroughs through earlier.org.
* Shelley Wilson (Honolulu, HI) for Business and Entrepreneurship - Turned personal adversity into Wilson Care Group, a purpose-driven healthcare enterprise generating over $50M annually while creating hundreds of local jobs and delivering innovative, aloha-centered senior care across Hawai`i.

* Margie Singleton (Savannah, GA) for Leadership - After her breast cancer diagnosis, she championed "Margie's Law," requiring healthcare providers to notify roughly 800,000 Georgia women each year about dense breast tissue risks while mentoring patients and advancing advocacy for earlier breast cancer detection.
The "Remarkable Women Across America" telecast was hosted by Leeza Gibbons, former longtime host of Entertainment Tonight, and featured musical performances by Morgan Myles, a past finalist for NBC's "The Voice," known for the fastest four-chair turn in the show's history, and Blanco Brown, an American country-rap artist best known for his viral multi-platform hit, "The Git Up."

A century of discovery: Mayo Clinic Proceedings marks 100 years of advancing medical research, education and practice
*
ROCHESTER, Minn. -For 100 years, Mayo Clinic Proceedings has helped shape the course of modern medicine -publishing discoveries that move from the page to the bedside and improve care for patients around the world. As the journal approaches its centennial in April 2026, Mayo Clinic is marking the milestone with events, exhibitions and special publications celebratinga century of scientific rigor, collaboration and impact.
Rooted in the same spirit that drives Bold. Forward., Mayo Clinic's strategy to transform healthcare, Mayo Clinic Proceedings continues to connect discovery to delivery -advancing the science and practice of medicine, helping ensure that knowledge translates into better outcomes for patients everywhere.
First published in April 1926 as the Bulletin of the Mayo Clinic and Mayo Foundation, Mayo Clinic Proceedingsis a leading journal of general and internal medicine that reaches millions of readers worldwide, with more than 7 million article downloads in 2025 and a journal Impact Factor of 6.7. It ranks among the top 10% of general and internal medicine journals internationally.
Since January 2025, the journal has been highlighting, in special articles and historical content, its 100-year commitment to research that has transformed medical science and practice. On April 25, a centennial reception will be held on the Rochester campus.
"Mayo Clinic Proceedingsbegan as an internal publication, but its spirit and intent always were expansive," says Karl Nath, M.B., Ch.B., M.D., Mayo Clinic Proceedings editor-in-chief. "It was meant to share knowledge, to educate and to improve care -values that continue to guide it a century later. As we enter our second century, we remain committed to publishing content that informs, inspires and advances healthcare."
Evolved from a newsletter to an internationally renowned journal
Mayo Clinic Proceedings had its start in the early years of Mayo Clinic's transformation from a family medical practice into an internationally renowned clinic. During weekly staff meetings in the 1920s, the Mayo brothers, William A. Mayo, M.D., and Charles W. Mayo, M.D., sat in the front row as colleagues presented cases and discussed new approaches to patient care. To share this knowledge more broadly, they enlisted Maude Mellish Wilson, the clinic's first institutional librarian, to summarize the meetings. Wilson's newsletter quickly evolved into Mayo Clinic Proceedings.
Throughout its history, Mayo Clinic Proceedings has captured landmark moments in medicine, from the introduction of insulin therapy in the 1920s to pioneering research on cortisone by Mayo Clinic researchers who later received the Nobel Prize. Since the COVID-19 pandemic began in 2020, the journal has published more than 500 related studies, including early findings on infection risks among healthcare personnel and post-COVID-19 syndromes.
The journal, which has featured cutting-edge work on artificial intelligence in cardiology, digital health innovation and physician well-being, has two open-access expansion journals: Mayo Clinic Proceedings: Innovations, Quality & Outcomes and Mayo Clinic Proceedings: Digital Health. Both have been accepted by Clarivate for Impact Factor ratings, a marker of influence and quality in academic publishing.
Podcasts, exhibitions and a commemorative edition
There are several events and publications planned to celebrate the centennial, including:
* A virtual historical exhibit curated by Mayo Clinic Archives is available online. Archival exhibitions are on display currently in the staff library and the Paonessa Library at Mayo Clinic Hospital in Arizona, and in the main library at Mayo Clinic Hospital in Florida.
* Mayo Clinic Proceedings editions from 1926 to 1983 have been digitized and are now available in the online archive.
* A commemorative edition, available in print and as an e-book, is in production.
* The journal will be featured on Mayo Clinic Talks, the podcast series presented by Mayo Clinic School of Continuous Professional Development.
* Interviews with Dr. Nath and S. Vincent Rajkumar, M.D., a Mayo Clinic hematologist and Mayo Clinic Proceedings editorial board member, are featured on Tomorrow's Cure, a Mayo Clinic podcast on YouTube.
About Mayo Clinic
Mayo Clinic is a nonprofit organization committed to innovation in clinical practice, education and research, and providing compassion, expertise and answers to everyone who needs healing. Visit the Mayo Clinic News Network for additional Mayo Clinic news.

Q: What trends stand out in LIMRA's latest life insurance data?
Snyder: The overall industry growth is encouraging to witness, and that growth is across all product categories. It's not just one specific segment or category that is seeing success, which reflects strong customer demand and a healthy marketplace. It's exciting to see that the industry grew at a record-breaking rate of ten percent - which means more Americans are reaping the benefits of life insurance. This growing demand means the industry is making headway in reducing a critical protection gap in our country.
Growth is increasingly going to carriers that have competitive products combined with simple, fast and transparent experiences for both advisors and clients. Advisors are looking beyond price to differentiate carriers, rewarding those that demonstrate consistency, long-term discipline, and reliability - especially in an environment where economic conditions and risk appetites continue to shift. That reinforces the importance of trust, stability, and execution over the life of the policy, not just at point of sale.
Q: LIMRA's report shows Nationwide as the No. 3 life insurer as measured by total premium in the U.S. What does this milestone mean for the company?
Snyder: In 2011, Nationwide was ranked 29th across the industry. Since then, we've deliberately expanded into key product categories--including IUL and linked-benefit LTC--and that strategic diversification has fundamentally shaped our growth over the years. We broke into the top ten a decade ago, reached the top five in 2023, and today we stand proudly in the No. 3 position in terms of total premium. What makes it even more meaningful is that we achieved the highest growth rate among all carriers in the top ten last year. It's a validation of our strategy, our product innovation, and the trust our distribution partners place in us.
This is an important milestone because it reflects years of deliberate strategy, investment, and consistency. It validates that our approach of focusing on long-term value rather than short-term wins is resonating with advisors and customers alike. For us, this ranking isn't just about scale. It's about earning trust at scale. Life insurance is fundamentally about keeping promises over decades, and this milestone affirms that Nationwide is seen as a carrier that advisors can confidently build their business around and that policyholders can rely on for the long haul.
Q: What factors contributed to Nationwide's rise to the #3 spot?
Snyder: Our momentum has been driven by a combination of diversification, discipline, and people. We've intentionally built a broad portfolio across protection needs from indexed and variable solutions to market-leading linked-benefit products, while still maintaining a strong risk framework and pricing discipline. We've invested heavily in modernizing our technology, simplifying the new business experience, and surrounding our partners with deep expertise and human support. Success in life insurance comes from combining innovation with care and never losing sight of the promises we make.
We've also focused on being transparent with our customers and partners. Transparency is the foundation of trust. We simplify life insurance to provide clear and reliable coverage our customers can rely on. No complications, no guesswork. Our commitment to transparency extends to premiums, costs, commissions - and how they work. We adhere to our pricing and underwriting standards, which have allowed us to maintain or even decrease cost of insurance (COI) rates and set stable COI charges to avoid the need to increase them later. This commitment led to a 30% growth in the number of financial professionals actively selling Nationwide life products over the past three years.
Q: How do you see the life insurance market evolving in 2026 and beyond?
Snyder: The life insurance market will continue to reward carriers that think long-term about how they manage risk and support customers throughout their lives. We expect continued demand for flexible protection solutions, paired with higher expectations for speed, transparency, and personalization.
I expect technology and automation to fundamentally reshape the insurance experience--from new business and underwriting, to claims and customer engagement. We're also going to see continued momentum behind living benefit and hybrid life/long-term care solutions. Consumers want guaranteed, predictable value, and products that support them throughout their lifetime. That trend isn't slowing down - if anything, it's accelerating.
Q: What advice do you have for advisors navigating life insurance sales in 2026?
Snyder: My advice to advisors is to keep the focus where it belongs: on long-term outcomes for clients. Products matter, but so do the carrier behind them, the service model, and the commitment to stand by clients through changing needs and economic conditions. Partner with carriers that invest in simplicity, consistency, and human expertise. In a complex environment, advisors who lead with trust, education, and care will continue to differentiate themselves, and the right carrier partnerships can make all the difference.
The pace of innovation in our industry is only increasing, so it's essential that advisors commit to continually learning about new and existing solutions that may meet the needs of their clients. Advisors need to understand more than just the pricing differences between carriers, but also the deeper distinctions -- including product design, risk mechanics, service capabilities, and value-added benefits. The more they lean into understanding the nuances, the better they can guide clients to solutions that truly fit their needs.

PHOENIX, Arizona, March 21 [Category: BizEnergy] -- The Salt River Project, a public power utility and electricity provider, issued the following news:
* * *
SRP's Community Irrigation Revitalization Initiative Supported by $275,000 Grant from the James M. Cox Foundation
*
The Bonneville Environmental Foundation (BEF) has been awarded a $275,000 grant from the James M. Cox Foundation in support of Salt River Project's Community Irrigation Revitalization Initiative (CIRI). The investment supports ongoing work to modernize and upgrade the private flood irrigation system in a South Phoenix neighborhood- an underserved community facing significant economic barriers and designated as a high-poverty census tract.
The Estrella-Rancho and Monte Vista Gardens neighborhoods face longstanding infrastructure challenges because the private flood irrigation systems, built between the 1920s and 1970s, have far exceeded their intended lifespan. System failures lead to inefficient water use, neighborhood flooding, safety concerns, and loss of community green space. CIRI helps address these challenges by providing upfront infrastructure improvements and long-term irrigation support, advancing water efficiency for up to 238 homes and enabling the community to save an estimated 76 million gallons of water over five years.
"We are grateful for the James M. Cox Foundation's support of this project as it delivers meaningful environmental and community benefits to Phoenix neighborhoods," said Susan Anable, Phoenix Market Vice President, Cox Communications. "Cox has a longstanding local partnership with SRP, one built on a history of shared commitments - from advancing sustainable energy to supporting critical water conservation efforts. Revitalizing these irrigation systems reflects our shared commitment to sustainability and conservation by helping reduce water waste, protect from flooding, and maintain vital green spaces in the community."
CIRI is part of SRP's commitment to conserve 5 billion gallons of water as part of their 2035 Sustainability Goals. Responsibility for the long-term maintenance of the private flood irrigation system will remain with the neighborhood.
"CIRI is an impactful new initiative rooted in SRP's commitment to empowering water conservation in our community," Elvy Barton, SRP Senior Manager of Water and Forest Sustainability said. "We are grateful for the generous grant from the James M. Cox Foundation that significantly increases the scope and scale of this vital work, demonstrating the power of partnerships to solve complex community challenges. Together, we can create meaningful water savings, improve access to affordable irrigation, and contribute to a stronger foundation for long-term neighborhood resilience."
The James M. Cox Foundation grant supports Phases 2, 3 and 4 of the project, covering 44% of the estimated cost to repair and modernize the aging private flood irrigation system.

Japan Expands Gender Pay Data Reporting Rules: What Employers Need to Know for 2026
If you have operations in Japan with more than 100 employees, your disclosure obligations are changing this spring. While Japan has required larger employers to publicly report gender pay data since 2022, the framework will be expanding to cover more companies, as well as an additional data point (theratio of women in management). Depending on your headcount in Japan, this could bring new reporting obligations that you'll need to put together soon. Here's what you need to know about the law, what changed, and the steps you should consider taking ahead of April 1.
Quick Background
Japan's Act on Promotion of Women's Participation and Career Advancement in the Workplace has been on the books since 2016, but its reporting requirements for businesses with at least 101 employees have grown over time.
Companies with more than 300 employees have been required since 2022 to publicly report their gender pay gap between male and female employees each year. The data collected includes base wages, bonuses, and allowances for the overall workforce, as well as a separate analysis for certain employee groups, like full-time employees and part-time or fixed-term employees. Publicly traded companies have also had to include this data in their annual securities filings since January 2023.
Notably, companies with more than 100 employees in Japan have been required to create a general employer action plan to share with the public and to file with the government for review, including information on the measures taken to improve workplace gender equality. They also need to disclose certain information about workplace opportunities and work-life balance, and the required disclosure items vary based on employer size.
What's Changing?
This year, the reporting requirements will be expanded in two ways, effective April 1:
* Companies with more than 300 employees must now disclose the ratio of women in management in addition to their prior reporting obligations.
* Companies with 101 to 300 employees must begin disclosing both the ratio of female managers and their gender pay gap data for the first time.
These disclosure requirements supplement existing disclosure obligations effective April 1, 2026. As in prior years, data should be reported within three months of the fiscal year-end.
Why is it Important?
The goal of this law is to promote participation and advancement of women in the workforce. Guiding principles focus on:
* providing opportunities to hire and promote women;
* creating an environment where women and men can balance work and family life; and
* respecting women's choices on balance between work and family life.
Japan has expanded the law gradually, with the latest changes impacting more employers and requiring additional reporting. Since these disclosures need to be published on your company website or a government portal, job seekers, investors, clients, and competitors can view them. So, in addition to being a best practice, closing the gender pay gap will impact how people perceive your organization.
Your 7-Step Compliance Plan
1. Determine if reporting requirements apply. If you have more than 300 employees in Japan and you're already reporting on gender pay gaps, you'll need to add the new management ratio requirement. If your headcount is in the 101 to 300 range, note that existing obligations still apply, but you should now review the expanded requirements and develop a system to gather and report this information annually. If your employee population is near the 100 employee threshold, you may want to consult an attorney to determine when the obligations are triggered.
2. Develop your general action plan. All employers with more than 100 employees are required to maintain and disclose an action plan with defined goals, measures, and an analysis of challenges facing female employees.
3. Audit your pay data and HR systems. Ahead of your reporting window, it's a good idea to run a preliminary analysis of your gender pay data. Make sure your HR systems properly capture this information for your overall workforce, and that it can be sorted based on full-time, part-time, or fixed-term employment. You'll also need to ensure your payroll system captures base wages, bonuses, and allowances, as needed for the reporting requirements.
4. Properly designate managers. Be sure your records indicate whether an employee is considered a manager under the law, so the share of women in manager-level roles can be measured against your total management population.
5. Communicate your improvement plan effectively. In addition to disclosing gender pay gap data, you'll need to report certain information on the measures you've taken to improve gender equity in your workplace. Your legal, HR, and communications teams should work together to create an honest, constructive, and compliant report.
6. Confirm your disclosure channels. Disclosures should appear on your company website or a designated government platform, such as the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare of Japan's Database on Promotion of Women's Participation and Advancement in the Workplace. In addition to being made available to the general public, action plans must also be submitted to employment authorities for review.
7. Work with legal counsel. Reach out to your FP attorney to help you navigate new workplace laws and create a compliance plan.

During the discovery phase of a lawsuit, the parties are required to collect and exchange evidence, including electronically stored information (ESI) to understand the facts of the case. However, discovery requests are limited by relevance, proportionality, and other rules, and certain materials and communications are protected. For example:
* The attorney-client privilege shields certain communications from discovery if they are between a client and their attorney, intentionally kept confidential, and for the purpose of obtaining or providing legal advice.
* The work product doctrine protects certain materials from discovery if they were prepared in anticipation of litigation, such as legal strategies, notes, and analyses.
Just as we predicted in our FP Forecast 2026, AI-generated ESI - especially from notetakers, meeting summaries, auto-drafted emails, and chat assistants - is becoming a core discovery battlefield in employment cases, as highlighted by two recent cases discussed below. We also recently covered how the rise of the "ChatGPT plaintiff" and how AI is transforming employment litigation, driving up defense costs, and what in-house counsel can do about it.
Warner v. Gilbarco, Inc. - Pro Se Plaintiff's ChatGPT Interactions Were Protected "Work Product"
In an ongoing employment discrimination case, a federal court in Michigan ruled on February 10 that materials reflecting the pro se plaintiff's use of ChatGPT to help draft filings for the lawsuit were protected by the work-product doctrine.
Key Facts and Arguments
A woman sued her former employer in 2024, alleging gender, race, and national origin discrimination, as well as retaliation, under Michigan and federal law. She filed her suit pro se, which means she represented herself without the aid of a lawyer. During discovery, the company asked the court to compel the plaintiff (who admitted during a deposition to using ChatGPT to help draft filings for the lawsuit) to produce "all documents and information concerning her use of third-party AI tools in connection with this lawsuit" - including, for example, her prompts/queries and the AI outputs.
* The company argued that the ChatGPT materials were relevant, discoverable, and not protected by the work product doctrine since the plaintiff is self-represented and not an attorney, and because she voluntarily disclosed such information to ChatGPT, a third party. In a December 23 court filing, the company claimed that "any ruling to the contrary would effectively confer upon generative AI tools the status of 'attorney,' and would give plaintiffs the encouragement and license to displace actual human lawyers with generative AI tools and assert privilege and work product protections for all communications with the tool."
* The plaintiff objected, arguing that such discovery requests were for her "internal analysis and mental impressions - i.e., her thought process - rather than any existing document or evidence, which is not discoverable as a matter of law."
How the Court Ruled
The court rejected the company's arguments and sided with the plaintiff, holding that the ChatGPT materials were not discoverable because they were not relevant (or, even if relevant, not proportional) and, in any event, protected by the work-product doctrine.
* The court said that the pro se plaintiff was permitted to assert work-product protection, and that she did not waive it by using ChatGPT because such waiver must be "to an adversary or in a way likely to get in an adversary's hand" and "ChatGPT (and other generative AI programs) are tools, not persons, even if they may have administrators somewhere in the background."
* The court also agreed with the plaintiff that the company's theory "would nullify work-product protection in nearly every modern drafting environment, a result no court has endorsed."
The court therefore denied the company's request for the court to overrule the plaintiff's attorney-client privilege and work-product objections to the AI materials, though it did not specifically address the privilege issue.
United States v. Heppner - No Privilege or Protection for Criminal Defendant's AI-Generated Legal Advice
One week after the Warner v. Gilbarco decision, a federal district court in New York reached a much different conclusion. This court held that when an AI user communicates with a publicly available AI platform in connection with a pending criminal investigation, the communications are not protected by attorney-client privilege or the work product doctrine. While the circumstances in this case are much different than those in the case discussed above, the court's take demonstrates how disputes around whether certain AI materials are privileged or protected may play out differently across jurisdictions.
Key Facts and Arguments
After Bradley Heppner was indicted on various fraud-related charges, FBI agents arrested him and executed a search warrant at his home. During that search, the agents seized numerous documents and electronic devices, including documents reflecting Heppner's communications with Claude, a GenAI platform operated by Anthropic. (Heppner pleaded not guilty to all charges and is awaiting trial, which is set to begin in April).
* The defendant's counsel asserted privilege over the Claude communications, claiming that Heppner created those documents for the purpose of speaking with counsel to obtain legal advice and by inputting information he had learned from counsel. The attorney, however, admitted that he had not directed Heppner to run Claude searches.
* The government agreed to temporarily set the Claude documents aside and asked the court for a ruling that neither the attorney-client privilege nor the work product document protected the Claude documents.
How the Court Ruled
The court held that the Claude communications were not protected by the attorney-client privilege because they were:
* not between Heppner and his counsel - and the court even quoted this recent commentary (JOLT Digest) to suggest that communications with platforms like Claude could never be privileged because all recognized privileges require "a trusting human relationship."
* not confidential, especially given that Claude users must consent to the company's privacy policy, which states that Anthropic reserves the right to collect users' inputs and Claude's outputs and disclose it to various third parties - including governmental regulatory authorities.
* not created by Heppner for the purpose of obtaining legal advice, as his lawyer did not direct him to communicate with Claude (though the court noted that if that had been the case, this third prong would've been a closer call as "Claude might arguably be said to have functioned in a manner akin to a highly trained professional who may act as a lawyer's agent within the protection of the attorney-client privilege").
The court also ruled that the work-product doctrine did not apply because even if the Claude documents were prepared "in anticipation of litigation," Heppner was not acting as his counsel's agent because he "communicated with Claude of his own volition" (and his counsel conceded that the Claude documents did not reflect his strategy at the time they were created).
5 Practical Takeaways for Employers
Though these cases reflect two courts' initial forays into this very new subject matter, a split appears to be emerging over whether interactions with generative AI tools can be protected by the attorney-client privilege or the work-product doctrine. As a result, employers may benefit from reassessing how GenAI is used across their organizations. Here are five steps you should consider taking now to help protect - or, when advantageous, leverage - AI-related materials in litigation:
* Vet your AI vendor before deploying their technology. When choosing an AI vendor for your organization, evaluate critical areas to ensure the AI system won't bring you any unanticipated legal liability and disastrous reputational harm. (For example, the Heppner decision highlights how using AI platforms may be viewed as disclosing information to a third party - potentially waiving privilege.) We covered the essential questions to ask your AI vendor, and for more personalized assistance throughout the entire selection process, contact a member of our AI, Data, and Analytics Team.
* Limit or ban GenAI usage for sensitive or confidential HR matters. AI use for business purposes or day-to-day operations is unlikely to be viewed by courts as privileged information, so you should consider training your managers and HR staff to limit or avoid AI use for hiring, firing, or other personnel matters that could potentially become relevant in litigation. This may be especially true in jurisdictions seeking to regulate, if not outright ban, the use of AI when making such determinations (such as in California, where lawmakers are once again considering a "No Robo Bosses" bill - read more here). Beyond HR-specific protocols, make sure to refresh your broader policies as needed (here are 10 things all workplace AI policies should include).
* Tread carefully when using AI for legal advice. You should train your leadership (from C-level executives to day-to-day managers) on the risks tied to using GenAI for legal advice. When non-lawyers use GenAI to research the issues in a new legal claim or to help draft their communications with a plaintiff's attorney before they have engaged defense counsel or without the involvement of legal counsel, all of those AI chat histories could very likely be discoverable and potentially become evidence that could be used against the company in court. Consider enacting policies for management that require any AI use for legal advice to be directed or approved by in-house or outside counsel and conducted within secure, company-approved systems. Searches and queries should be clearly labeled as prepared at the direction of counsel - but again, tread carefully here as this is a new and unsettled area of the law.
* Anticipate discovery risks and determine the impact on record retention. Work with counsel to identify where AI data resides and how to preserve it appropriately. If you have questions, contact any member of our eDiscovery and Digital Workplace team.
* Make AI-related discovery requests when advantageous. If opposing parties have used AI tools, their prompts and outputs could potentially be discoverable if they are relevant to the claims or defenses in the case. As the use of GenAI becomes more ubiquitous, employees are likely to rely on it for answers to their everyday questions outside their areas of expertise, including legal issues. We recommend working with counsel to challenge privilege claims, especially if the plaintiff used third-party AI tools without any attorney direction.
Want more? Last month, the DOL released a roadmap for training workers for AI literacy, and FP's Dave Walton testified on Capitol Hill about what responsible AI use means for employers. Our attorneys also recently covered best employer practices for using AI-driven tools to screen resumes, moderate job interviews, conduct gamified hiring assessments, scan candidates' social media, boost employee engagement and retention, and support employee performance management.
Conclusion
This emerging question - whether AI-generated legal advice can be protected by the attorney-client privilege or work-product doctrine - is poised to become a frequently litigated issue and may be treated inconsistently across jurisdictions.

Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) Establishes Foundation for Long-Term Collaboration to Expand Access to Trusted U.S. Legislative and Regulatory Intelligence Across Asia

FiscalNote Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: NOTE), a global leader in AI-driven policy and regulatory intelligence, today announceda Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with D&A Advisory LLC, the Washington, D.C.-based consulting arm of D&A LLC, one of South Korea's premier law firms. The MOU establishes a foundation for long- term collaboration to bring FiscalNote's authoritative U.S. policy intelligence to Korean and Asian enterprises, law firms, and government affairs professionals across Asia.
As Korean and Asian organizations face an increasingly complex and consequential U.S. policy environment -- shaped by sweeping tariff actions, supply chain legislation, AI governance frameworks, and shifting trade and foreign policy priorities -- the demand for real-time, authoritative intelligence on Washington has never been greater. Organizations operating at the intersection of Asia and the United States require more than headlines. They require structured, verified, and actionable intelligence they can act on with confidence.
Through this MOU, D&A's clients will gain access to PolicyNote's full suite of U.S. policy intelligence capabilities, drawing on the trusted reporting and analysis of CQ and Roll Call, the gold standard for U.S. congressional intelligence. The parties have also agreed to collaborate on go-to-market strategies, transaction models, and joint initiatives to further expand the reach of U.S. policy intelligence across Asia.
This MOU reflects FiscalNote's continued commitment to expanding access to authoritative U.S. policy intelligence across Asia, meeting the growing demand from Korean and Asian organizations that require a trusted, real-time window into Washington.
"The organizations that win in today's environment are the ones that can see Washington clearly in real time, with depth, and with trust," said Josh Resnik, CEO and President of FiscalNote. "Asian enterprises and institutions are making decisions every day that are shaped by what happens in Congress, in federal agencies, and in state capitals across America. FiscalNote exists to give those decision-makers the intelligence layer they need. Signing this MOU with D&A, one of Korea's most respected legal and advisory institutions, is the right way to bring that intelligence where it's needed most."
D&A's Policy Navigator Reports, a flagship subscription product co-developed by D&A Advisory and D&A LLC to provide clients with structured intelligence on U.S. policy developments, will cite FiscalNote and CQ & Roll Call as the source of policy data, reflecting the parties' commitment to transparency and the attribution of authoritative
intelligence. These reports are widely subscribed to by a diverse range of Korean clients, including large private sector entities like Hyosung (a major South Korean industrial conglomerate with roughly $11 billion in annual sales) and public sector clients like the Embassy of the Republic of Korea in the United States.
"U.S. policy has never been more directly consequential for Korean business and government," said Hochang Song, Partner and Director of U.S. Strategy Division, D&A LLC. "Our clients need more than analysis. They need a continuous, trusted window into the legislative and regulatory forces shaping the American market. This collaboration with FiscalNote gives our clients that advantage, and I am proud to bring it to them."
