Hiya - see images for the MCQ and the explanation for the answer.

From what I am reading in the material, other MCQs, and also what I can find when googling online, it seems that Accountant-Client Privilege is not valid for criminal cases (even if state generally allows for the privilege).... but this is a question from the AICPA so I feel like I am missing something here. Appreciate any insight anyone has on this!

Thanks!
