Description
This is an interlocutory appeal from an order relating to discovery in a divorce suit pending in the circuit court of Dade County. The appellant, the husband, is suing for divorce. The wife has counterclaimed for alimony without divorce, charging the husband with having been guilty of adultery. The wife noticed the husband for a discovery deposition. Her inquiry thereon sought to explore two areas in which he claimed privilege. One was as to communications between him and his accountant. His objection there, on the ground of privileged communications, as provided for by § 473.15 Fla.Stat., F.S.A., was sustained, and the trial court recognized the husbands right to refuse to answer in that area without penalty. The other consisted of questions going to the charge of adultery which the wife had leveled against him. As to that, the husband refused to answer upon invoking his constitutional privilege against self-incrimination. However, the court ordered the husband to answer, and this appeal followed.
