The following excerpt is from United States v. Oriho, 969 F.3d 917 (9th Cir. 2020):
case where the party asserting the privilege "flatly refused to justify his fear of criminal prosecution." McCoy v. C.I.R. , 696 F.2d 1234, 1236 (9th Cir. 1983). Oriho, in contrast, stands indicted in a major healthcare fraud case and has gone to great lengths to brief us and the district court on his specific Fifth Amendment concerns.
